10am
Yemen is in turmoil, as various factions are entangled in a civil war. In February, US embassy staff were evacuated. This month, the order came for the withdrawal of around 100 US special forces--the last official American presence in the country. This hour, we hear the latest from inside Yemen and discuss the complicated role that Saudi Arabia, Iran, and the US play in the chaos and in regional conflicts.
