“After yesterday’s attack, which killed 21, reports of today’s strikes are still murky, but at least 25 more were killed, sending the figure to 46, and likely to rise even further as the figures continue to come in from remote areas. Officially, the Yemeni government referred to the slain today as ‘leading and dangerous’ al-Qaeda figures, but tellingly offered not a single name of a single victim of the attacks. While today’s victims remain a mystery, a number of civilian bystanders were confirmed killed in yesterday’s attack, which targeted a truckload of ‘suspects’ and destroyed some nearby cars.”
