Report: Suicide attacks kill five in eastern Yemen army base

Two suicide car bombs exploded at an army headquarters in eastern Yemen on Tuesday, killing five people, security sources said.

 

Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, which operates in eastern Yemen, claimed responsibility for the attack, saying on its Twitter account that it had killed and wounded dozens.

 

Security officials said the bombers' cars detonated before they could enter the compound and the defense ministry sent out a text message saying soldiers had foiled the attack.
