Three Qaeda men killed in Yemen
AFP
SANAA AN air strike in southern Yemen has killed at least three suspected Al Qaeda militants, the defence ministry said in a statement on Sunday.
A security official said the raid late on Saturday was conducted by a US drone against a moving vehicle carrying Al Qaeda operatives in the province of Bayda, some 210 kilometres (130 miles) southeast of the capital Sanaa.
The ministry, however, maintained the Yemeni government’s routine insistence that only its aircraft carry out such operations on its soil.
The official statement released on the ministry’s website said that the three militants killed were “local Al Qaeda leaders.” The United States has never formally acknowledged the use of drones against Al Qaeda in Yemen, considered by Washington to be the most active and deadly branch of the global terror network.
