IFP- Yemen�s Interior Ministry has confirmed earlier reports of the death of Ali Abdullah Saleh, the former Yemeni president, amid clashes between his loyalists and Houthi Ansarullah movement.
The Lebanese Al-Mayadeen TV quoted the Houthi-controlled interior ministry of Yemen as saying that the ex-president has been killed.
A report by the radio station of the Interior Ministry added that the state TV would soon broadcast footage of Saleh�s dead body, while social media users in Yemen circulated unverified images of a corpse which resembled the ex-president.
Saleh�s party earlier denied to Reuters that their leader had been killed and said he was continuing to lead forces in their clashes against the Houthis in the capital Sana�a.
His whereabouts are unknown and he has made no public appearances since the reports of his death surfaced.
It was earlier confirmed that the Houthi fighters have blown up Saleh�s house in Sana�a, and that he has escaped to Ma�rib.
