| Three Yemen Police Killed in Aden |
| 2012-01-21 |
| [An Nahar] Unidentified gunnies rubbed out three coppers in the center of southern Yemen's largest city, Aden, on Friday, police said. The assailants shot up a police checkpoint before torching a police vehicle at the scene and fleeing, the source added. While no one was immediately blamed, al-Qaeda-linked Orcs and similar vermin have carried out numerous attacks on government officials in the south. Deadly incidents have been on the rise in recent months as Orcs and similar vermin exploit a central government weakened by months of protests against President President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh. ... Saleh initially took power as a strongman of North Yemen in 1977, when disco was in flower, but he didn't invite Donna Summer to the inauguration and Blondie couldn't make it... The group controls a number of towns in the south and is attempting to extend its influence to Aden. |
