SANAA, March 25 (Reuters) - Gunmen kidnapped two Western nationals working at the United Nations office in Yemen's capital Sanaa, a local police source said on Tuesday, without giving more details.
Kidnapping is common in Yemen, where the government faces an insurgency from Islamists linked to al Qaeda, a southern separatist movement and fighting in the country's north, as well as sporadic conflicts with armed tribes.
