Yemeni Forces Kill Pro-Saudi Al-Qaeda Figures in Aden Province
Alwaght-Yemeni forces and popular committees have dealt a heavy blow to pro-Saudi al Qaeda terrorists in the country’s strategic Aden province.
Yemeni forces have killed an al-Qaeda leader in Aden province on Friday, a military, sources in the country’s Defense Ministry said.

According to Yemeni News Agency, Abdul-Naser al-Yafe'e, also known Abu-Hammam, and others were killed during a failed attempt to infiltrate to Ja’ulah area in Aden province.
In another incident another dangerous al-Qaeda element in Aden province was killed on Wednesday.

Mohamed Shukri Baabad, known by Ramzi al-Adani, was killed by the army and popular committees in Aden, the source added.

The source pointed out that the army and popular committees will continue to hunt terrorists down and will not allow them to spread chaos or acts of sabotage or disturb public security.
Elsewhere Saudi state media say at least four Saudi troops have been killed and eight others injured in retaliatory attacks by Yemeni forces against the Asir region in Saudi Arabia.
Saudi media, citing an Interior Ministry official, said that the Yemeni army and allied Popular Committees targeted the Saudi military base of al-Misal in the Dhahran al-Janoub region of Asir on Friday, killing at least four Saudi military officers and wounding eight others.
Meanwhile Saudi drones have launched three airstrikes on the city of Harad in Yemen’s northwestern province of Hajjah, local media say.
Yemen’s Arabic-language al-Masirah satellite television network did not provide further details about the Friday midnight attacks.
Saudi Arabia launched its military aggression against Yemen on March 26 – without a UN mandate – in an effort to undermine Yemen’s popular Houthi Ansarullah movement and also restore power to the country’s fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh.
Over four months of Saudi aggression against Yemen have caused severe shortages in basic necessities. Some 80 percent of Yemenis are in dire need of immediate assistance.
According to local sources, Saudi Arabia’s onslaught has so far claimed nearly 5,300 lives, mostly civilians including women and children.
