The Nobel Peace Prize laureate Tawakkol Karman has pledged that she will be a thorn in the throat of Al Saud for the sake of Yemen and her dreams of a free and dignified life.

This came in response to an article in the Saudi daily "Okaz" that attacked Karman.

"I will be a thorn in the throat of Al Saud for my country and its dreams of a free and dignified life," Karman said on Facebook.
