In Yemen, the army and security forces have affirmed that they will not allow any coup to happen. The statement has come following reports that three generals have announced their allegiance to the protest movement seeking to oust President Ali Abdallah Saleh from power. In a statement broadcast by Al-Jazeera television, commanders announced that they have joined the revolution as crisis is getting more complicated and it is pushing the country towards violence and civil war. Reports say that governor of Aden also resigned. Earlier country's ambassador to the UN and human rights minister resigned on Sunday protesting action of security forces on peaceful protesters. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has strongly condemned the use of live ammunition against demonstrators in Yemen, and repeated international calls for dialogue and restraint. Ban told reporters following talks with Arab League chief Amr Mussa in Cairo yesterday that the Yemen government has an obligation to protect civilians and there is no alternative to an inclusive dialogue on political, social and economic reform to address Yemen's political crisis.
