Al-Qaeda militants attacked on Wednesday Batais village of Jaar in Abyan
governorate in a first attack after the Yemeni army could dislodge them of
Abyan.
Local
sources said fighters of popular resistance committees responded to the
militants and killed two of them, pointing out that light and mediuim weapons
were used between two sides.
The Yemeni army could cleanse in mid
of June Abyan from al-Qaeda as it launched an offensive that lasted more than a
month.
On Tuesday, two militants were killed
in the southeastern port city of Mukalla when an explosive device they were
preparing to use against local security officials went off by accident, a local
official said.
