Yemeni soldiers killed at least two people and wounded 17 when they fired live rounds to disperse protesters on Sunday, according to Al Arabiya television and eyewitness reports, in the latest clash in a week of violence that has raised fears of civil war.

The incident took place in the center of Yemen's capital Sanaa as demonstrators marched near the Defense Ministry.

Seventeen wounded people were seen in a Sanaa hospital.

Some 18 people were killed on Saturday when government forces attacked the main opposition protest camp in Sanaa, said witnesses and medics, bringing the death toll in five days of fighting to around 100.

Analysts fear that the slide toward anarchy in the Arabian Peninsula state could create opportunities for a wing of al-Qaida based there and endanger oil shipment routes through the Red Sea.

Yemen's President Ali Abdullah Saleh unexpectedly returned to the country on Friday after a three-month stay in neighboring Saudi Arabia recuperating from a June assassination attempt.

Saleh, 69, has not yet announced his intentions since coming back to Yemen, but said on Saturday he was "carrying the dove of peace and the olive branch". He is expected to give a speech on state television later on Sunday.

Popular protests in January sparked a revolt against Saleh's rule that was joined by some of the country's tribal leaders and a dissident general.

Protesters accuse Saleh, his family and government of widespread corruption and failing to address crippling poverty and lawlessness in a land where one in two owns a gun.
