Yemen's president Saleh has planned to explode the situation militarily in the capital Sana'a, amid the escalation of the protests calling for his ouster, almasdaronline.com reported on Wednesday.
The website quoted political and security sources with knowledge of the plans as saying that: " Saleh and his relatives, especially those who command key military systems, have chaos and criminal plans on which they pin hope to cling to power and that these plans just need to be implemented".
The plans will be implemented in two phases; in the first phase, the targets will be the first armored division, whose commander announced peaceful support to the popular uprising, the square of change outside Sana'a University and houses of opposition leaders , the sources were quoted as saying.
"Missiles will be fired at these targets, and in the second phase the pro-Saleh forces will raid the targets".
Saleh himself will run the operations in collaboration with his son, Ahmed, commander of the republican guard, his nephews commanders of the national security and the central security, and his brother, the website said.
The national security will use force to disperse the tens of thousands, who have been conducting a sit-in in the square of change for months to call for the resignation of Saleh, it said, quoting analysts and politicians as warning of the consequences of such plans.
