None
Yemeni tribesmen angry over the death of a mediator killed by mistake in an airstrike targeting al Qaeda blew up an oil pipeline on Tuesday that ferries crude to the Red Sea, a provincial official said.
"Tribesmen blew up a pipeline that carries crude from Safir to the Ras Isa port on the Red Sea," the official said, declining to be named. "In response to the killing of the deputy governor of Maarib province, the tribesmen opened fire on army and security posts and blew up the pipeline," he added. (Reuters)
