14 soldiers killed in Yemen attacks

ADEN: Suspected Al-Qaeda militants killed 14 soldiers in a rocket attack and suicide bombing on Saturday that targeted intelligence headquarters in the main southern city of Aden, a security official said.

Earlier masked gunmen "used machineguns and rocket-propelled grenades" in the attack in the Tawahi coastal neighbourhood of Aden.

 The militants attacked in two groups, with one targeting the south side of the complex, and the other attacking the west side, next to the adjacent state television building.

"Eleven soldiers were killed at the television gate, while three others were killed by the car bomb," an official said.

Four soldiers were wounded, and three television employees, including two women, were also wounded.

The militants managed to escape.-- Agencies
