Three Soldiers Killed in Yemen 'Qaida' Bomb Attack
2014-12-20
[AnNahar] A suspected al-Qaeda kaboom killed three Yemeni soldiers and maimed five others Friday, a military source said, the second attack in days on security forces in Yemen's southeastern Hadramawt province.

An bomb planted in the town of Seyun exploded remotely as a vehicle carrying army personnel passed by, the source said.

Three soldiers were killed on Wednesday in a similar bombing west of Seyun.

Security forces are often the target of deadly attacks, which are usually blamed on al-Qaeda Death Eaters, who are active in the violence-wracked country.

is considered by Washington as the jihadist network's most dangerous affiliate.
