Islamists Attack Yemeni Airport As Bomber Hits Army Base: Sources -- Reuters
(Reuters) - Six suspected al Qaeda fighters, six soldiers and a civilian woman were killed in a series of militant attacks in the eastern Yemeni city of Seiyun on Thursday, local officials said.
A suicide bomber drove his explosives-laden car into the entrance of an army base, killing four soldiers in the city in Hadramawt province - a territory with some of the country's dwindling oil reserves. Another militant was killed in clashes that followed.
At around the same time, four militants and two soldiers were killed in a raid on the city's airport before forces regained control of the facility. A civilian woman was also killed in an attack at a nearby agricultural plant.
