Sanaa: Suspected Al-Qaida gunmen killed four Republican Guard soldiers in the mountainous central province of Marib, security official said.
The security official said on the condition of anonymity that the gunmen ambushed the four soldiers on Sunday while traveling in a vehicle to distribute food to fellow troops manning checkpoints. The assailants managed to flee, he said.
Al-Qaida’s attacks on Yemeni soldiers are frequent in Marib province, an Al-Qaida stronghold.
Al-Qaida’s activity has grown in Yemen over the past year, with several foiled terror attacks in the United States and elsewhere traced back to operatives based there.
