Yemeni deputy PM survives killing attempt
ADEN - Yemen's deputy prime minister for internal affairs Sadiq Ameen Abu Ras escaped an assassination attempt on Thursday, after a gun fire exchange between his guards and armed militants in the south.

Witnesses said militants opened fire on the official's convoy in the southern Shabwa province, where he attended celebrations marking the 20th anniversary of Yemen's unity. An exchange of fire took place, after which the militants escaped, and no injuries were reported.
