A reporter under cover
When Ghaith Abdul-Ahad went undercover in Yemen for this first-hand report he learned something that he'd never anticipated.
Having grown up in the area, the award-winning Iraqi journalist wanted to investigate Al Qaeda's campaign to impose their rule on areas of South Yemen. But it's not as black and white as you'd think. "They've changed," he says...
