&gt;Yemen<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;Tensions mount in Al-Gawf (Yemen Times. Monday, July 31, 2000)<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;Thousands of Dahm tribesmen are gathering in Wadi Alyatmah, in Al-Gawf<br/>
&gt;governorate near the Yemeni-Saudi borders. The Dahm tribe demand<br/>
&gt;compensation for the land that according to the Jedda treaty belongs to<br/>
&gt;Saudi Arabia. Dahm tribesmen claim that the land belongs to their tribe and<br/>
&gt;that nobody else has the right to deal with it. Following the signing of<br/>
&gt;the treaty between Yemen and Saudi Arabia, the tribe issued a statement<br/>
&gt;rejecting any appropriation of their land, threatening that the tribe will<br/>
&gt;defend its land. Clashes broke out between the tribe and forces from<br/>
&gt;Brigade (14) which tried to disperse the crowded tribesmen last Monday and<br/>
&gt;lasted for about 5 hours. Yemeni Minister of Interior met last week with<br/>
&gt;his Saudi counterpart and discussed ways of demarcation of borders. On the<br/>
&gt;other hand, copies of the treaty were Saturday handed over to Mr. Kofi<br/>
&gt;Annan UN Secretary General and Dr. Ismat Abdul Majeed, Arab League<br/>
&gt;secretary general.<br/>
