Yemen faces terror threats as U S drone strike hits al Qaida
In Yemen, a suspected U S drone killed four alleged al Qaida members near Marib while Sanaa streets see tanks and troops after reported threats. Embassies in Sanaa evacuated, as US and Britain warn of high risk and pull staff. The clash comes amid tighter security around key sites, including the Bab al Mandeb strait, and questions over the impact on Yemen’s cooperation with the international fight against terrorism. President Hadi's return to Sanaa follows warnings of possible attacks, with officials noting heightened vigilance and ongoing drone action against al Qaida leaders.
