SANAA, Yemen – Yemen's chaos deepened on Monday when people looting a munitions factory set off an accidental explosion that killed at least 78 in an area torn from government control by Islamist militants exploiting the president's rapidly dwindling power.

The militant seizure of the factory and nearby towns amplified Western fears that the fragile Yemeni state could deteriorate quickly because of President Ali Abdullah Saleh's standoff with an opposition coalition of youth groups, military defectors, clerics and tribal leaders calling for his ouster.

Saleh has cooperated closely with the U.S. in the battle against Yemen's branch of al-Qaida, which has used areas of Yemen long out of state control to launch attacks including the attempt to bomb a Detroit-bound airliner with a bomb sewn into underwear.

Saleh has also battled regional rebellions in the north and south.

McConnell breaks silence on Libya

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) broke his silence on Libya on Monday, calling on President Barack Obama to more clearly define U.S. military intervention in the war-ravaged Middle East nation.

McConnell’s Senate floor speech came just hours before Obama’s primetime address on U.S. involvement in Libya. Republicans have expressed confusion over the U.S. military’s mission, which so far has included airstrikes to impose a no-fly zone.

“Will America’s commitment end in days, not weeks, as the president promised? What will be the duration of the non-combat operation, and what will be the cost? What national security interest of the United States justified the risk of American life? What is the role of our country in Libya’s ongoing civil war?,” McConnell asked.

“The president made clear that our combat forces’ role in Libya will be limited in scope and duration. Tonight, I hope he will reiterate that pledge — or ask Congress before extending the duration or scope of our mission there.”

McConnell said Obama “has failed to explain” what happens now that the U.S. and its NATO allies have established a no-fly zone over Libya.

And the Republican leader hit the president for saying that Libyan strongman Muammar Qadhafi has to go.

“The president has articulated a wider political objective of regime change in Libya that is not the stated objective of our military intervention; nor is it the mandate of the U.N. resolution that the president has used as a justification for our military efforts there,” McConnell said.
