What’s That Weapon?

Filed under: South Yemen — by Jane Novak at 9:28 am on Sunday, June 7, 2009

Update: Its a 40mm rubber bullet for crowd control. Better than real bullets I guess.

Oriignal Post: Really not my area, I should go to the milbloggers I guess. The Yemeni govt is shooting these at the protesters. Is it a tear gas canister?

Not a surprising, the Yemeni gov’t uses live ammunation against protesters. It’s how it deals with its problems I guess. Kill everyone in the south, maybe that way Ali Saleh may have a chance in retaining power.
