South Korea's Justice Ministry says the Yemenis don't meet the criteria for full refugee status.


But temporary stay for a year, with an option for renewal, was granted on humanitarian grounds for 339 people.


Yemen is the midst of a civil war and famine. Thousands have been killed and millions displaced.


More than 500 hundred Yemenis have arrived on South Korea's Jeju Island since April.


They arrived on a visa-waiver loophole, and are barred from entering the mainland.

Protests as 800-year-old Indian temple opens doors to women

Security has been stepped up at an 800-year-old temple in the Indian state of Kerala where menstruating women will be allowed entry for the first time in centuries. 

This comes in the backdrop of a Supreme Court ruling that said that temple authorities cannot keep women devotees out on the grounds that the deity is 'celibate' and hence would be corrupted by the presence of menstruating women who are considered to be 'impure'.
