A team from the Syr­ian arm of the Red Cross deliv­ered aid to one of the city’s most dan­ger­ous neigh­bor­hoods after days of try­ing to reach the area.

Yemen president of 33 years quits amid uprising

The U.S. and its pow­er­ful Gulf allies pressed for the deal, con­cerned that a secu­rity col­lapse in the impov­er­ished Arab nation was allow­ing an active al-Qaida fran­chise to gain a firmer foothold.
