By Himanshu Ojha LONDON (Reuters) - Oil prices repaired early losses to rally above $64 on Friday due to the conflict in Yemen. Brent crude was within sight of its 2015 high reached on Thursday and has rallied 16 percent in April, supported by Yemen and the prospect that lower prices are starting to curb U.S. shale output. At 1509 GMT, Brent crude for June was up 25 cents at $64.23 a barrel. Military units protecting Yemen's Masila oilfields, the country's largest, withdrew on Friday and handed over security responsibilities to armed local tribes, in a sign of the weakening grip of the Yemeni state over its land and resources.
