Sanaa: Security forces are gathering in force ahead of what anti-government protesters say will be their biggest rally yet.
The protesters are demanding the resignation of President Ali Abdullah Saleh, who has ruled since 1978.
The protests have been marked by increasing violence, with some 50 people shot dead last Friday in Sanaa.
Saleh has offered to step down within a year but the opposition insists he must go immediately.
They also want constitutional changes, the resignation of the government and the dissolution of the internal security services.
Media says flights out of Sanaa are full as embassies evacuate staff. Britain has warned against all travel to Yemen.
Both the government and the opposition have set up checkpoints in Sanaa, the streets are full of armed men and fears of confrontation are strong and real.
