Sana'a (also spelled Sanaa or Sana; Arabic: صنعاء Ṣan‘ā’ pronounced [sˤɑnʕaːʔ], Yemeni Arabic: [ˈsˤɑnʕɑ]) is the largest city in Yemen and the centre of Sana'a Governorate. The city is not part of the Governorate, but forms the separate administrative district of "Amanat Al-Asemah". Under the Yemeni constitution, Sana'a is the capital of the country, although the seat of the internationally recognised government moved to Aden in the aftermath of the 2014–15 Yemeni coup d'état. Aden was declared as the temporary capital by President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi in March 2015.
Sana'a is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. At an altitude of 2,300 metres (7,500 ft), it is also one of the highest capital cities in the world. Sana'a has a population of approximately 1,937,500 (2012), making it Yemen's largest city.
The old city of Sana'a, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has a distinctive visual character due to its unique architectural characteristics, most notably expressed in its multi-storey buildings decorated with geometric patterns. In the conflict that raged in 2015, bombs hit UNESCO sites. Located here is the Great Mosque of Sana'a, the largest in the city.

Yemen (i/ˈjɛmən/; Arabic: اليَمَن al-Yaman), officially known as the Republic of Yemen (الجمهورية اليمنية al-Jumhūrīyah al-Yamanīyah), is an Arab country in Western Asia, occupying the southwestern to the southern end of the Arabian Peninsula. Yemen is the second largest country in the peninsula, occupying 527,970 km2 (203,850 sq mi). The coastline stretches for about 2,000 km (1,200 mi). It is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the north, the Red Sea to the west, the Gulf of Aden and Arabian Sea to the south, and Oman to the east. Although Yemen's constitutionally stated capital is the city of Sana'a, the city has been under rebel control since February 2015. Because of this, Yemen's capital has been temporarily relocated to the port city of Aden, on the southern coast. Yemen's territory includes more than 200 islands; the largest of these is Socotra.
Yemen was the home of the Sabaeans (biblical Sheba), a trading state that flourished for over a thousand years and probably also included parts of modern-day Ethiopia and Eritrea. In 275 AD, the region came under the rule of the later Jewish influenced Himyarite Kingdom. Christianity arrived in the 4th century AD whereas Judaism and local paganism were already established. Islam spread quickly in the 7th century and Yemenite troops were crucial in the expansion of the early Islamic conquests. Administration of Yemen has long been notoriously difficult. Several dynasties emerged from the 9th to 16th century, the Rasulid being the strongest and most prosperous. The country was divided between the Ottoman and British empires in the early 20th century. The Zaydi Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen was established after World War I in North Yemen before the creation of Yemen Arab Republic in 1962. South Yemen remained a British protectorate until 1967. The two Yemeni states united to form the modern republic of Yemen in 1990.
Situated in a mountain valley at an altitude of 2,200 m, Sana’a has been inhabited for more than 2,500 years. In the 7th and 8th centuries the city became a major centre for the propagation of Islam. This religious and political heritage can be seen in the 103 mosques, 14 hammams and over 6,000 houses, all built before the 11th century. Sana’a’s many-storeyed tower-houses built of rammed earth (pisé) add to the beauty of the site.

The Republic Of Yemen: there is almost no other country on Earth that possesses as many secrets and ancient legends as the Arabia Felix and the Bab Al Yemen, the gateway to the Yemen, is the entrance to the historic district of Sanaa, the Yemen’s capital city that it is believed to date back to the third century A.D. Women are rarely to be seen in Yemen’s marketplaces and, when they are, they are hidden from male glances by a protective veil. Islam still plays an important role in the daily cultural life of the people, including the traditional market places that are almost exclusively a male domain. The Republic Of Yemen covers a large part of the southwest of the Arabian Peninsula and contains several fascinating historical sites. East of Sanaa on the ancient Frankincense route, is th...

The new embattled government is now struggling to cope with a bevy of issues, including sectarian rivalries, CIA drone strikes, and one of al Qaeda's most sophisticated branches.

Liberal Democrats in the UK have denounced London’s complicity in Saudi Arabia’s devastating war on Yemen calling it shameful. A recent report shows that the Saudi Air Force is being trained by the British Government in both Saudi Arabia and the UK itself. The liberal political party has urged the government to immediately stop the training and restrict arms sales to the oil-rich kingdom. A spokesman for the party has condemned the indiscriminate bombing of innocent civilians by Saudi Arabia in Yemen, as blatant violation of international humanitarian law. Britain’s defense Secretary Michael Fallon has admitted helping the Royal Saudi Air Force but added that it was meant to improve their targeting process. Saudi Arabia came under mounting pressure for its recent airstrikes which killed a...
Intense fighting has been reported between Yemeni army and Saudi-backed forces despite a three-day UN-backed ceasefire. Saudi war planes pounded east of the capital Sana'a many times. A Saudi official confirmed the attacks claiming that Yemeni forces had violated the truce hundreds of times in 24 hours. However, a UN special envoy says the ceasefire, while fragile, is largely holding. He urged all parties to avoid further escalation. The three-day ceasefire that is due to end late Saturday is aimed at providing an opportunity to deliver humanitarian help to civilians. The Saudi aggression has left over 10 thousand Yemenis dead, mostly civilians. Millions of people have also been displaced and need immediate food and medicine.

In Yemen, residents in the capital Sanaa have reacted to the UN's announcement that a 72-hour ceasefire will start late on Wednesday, by calling for a permanent end to the war. The deal aims to facilitate the delivery of vital humanitarian aid to the country, which has been ravaged by conflict since 2014. Yemen's internationally recognised government, led by President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi, has been fighting Iranian backed Houthi rebels for control of Sanaa. "Truce?

Same video but with Yemeni music, click here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mg0kLGQSMuE A movie made with a small super 8 camera more than 41 years ago. It was in North Yemen. Coming from Djibouti, we landed in Taiz, and we travelled by car from Taiz to Sanaa, via Jibla. Scenes of the countryside are very interesting. At that time, Yemen was divided into two different countries : North Yemen (Sanaa) and South Yemen (Aden).. I downloaded a new release (same footages but with new soundtrack) in which the music has been changed for Yemeni music.

Saudi Arabia’s airstrikes have targeted a number of areas across Yemen including the capital, Sana’a, killing at least two children and one woman. Yemen’s Al-Masirah TV reported that the three were killed in Saudi airstrikes against the southern Ta’izz Province’s al-Taiziyah city. Similar airstrikes were also carried out in other areas. Yemeni state media reports said at least 50 Saudi mercenaries were killed and 80 others wounded in a missile attack by Yemeni forces against a military base in Marib. Three military vehicles were also destroyed. Meanwhile, Ahmed al-Assiri, a Saudi Arabian spokesman for the airstrikes in Yemen said that although major combat operations in Yemen were coming to an end, Riyadh would continue to “work on long-term” plans in Yemen. Saudi Arabia has said its milit...
Christmas in Belgium was different
Than the ones spent in L.A.
The Christmas I got no presents
Still me and my brother played
Near the ocean makin' the snow man
On his face we were makin' a smile
Cuz just like a daddy
The snow man had style
[Chorus:]
Snow man, snow man
Another Christmas gone
I got a chess game this time
A bishop takes the pawn
Sometimes I wanna go back where
The ocean swallows the shore
I could still see him smiling
When my snow man is no more, no more
Winter seldom passing
Where the memory doesn't sway
2 the smell of a Christmas dinner
Shared the family way (Shared in the family way)
Everything seems so perfect
That nothing would dare go wrong
But tears come with the summer
So long, so long (So long)
[Chorus]
Snow man
I look at my hands and I wonder
Will they ever make anyone smile
The way the snow man made me
[Chorus]
