The solution is not to hide the truth but to change the truth. Report from the Yemen, Sana’a: The reporters of Al Jazeera satellite channel in Yemen were threatened to be killed if they did not stop covering the protests in the south of the country, said the director of the Sana’a-based office on Sunday. Murad Hashem, director of the office, said he received a call at 10:30am, telling him to stop covering what’s happening in the south….Murad Hashem and his colleagues received many similar threats, especially for covering the protests. Earlier this month, an MP from the ruling party called for closing the office of Al Jazeera in Yemen.
