Tribesmen Kill 2 Qaida Suspects in South Yemen
[An Nahar] Yemeni rustics have killed two suspected al-Qaeda cut-throats in the restive southern province of Abyan, a tribal source said on Friday."Our gunnies killed al-Qaeda gunnies Abdullah Umeir and Shokri Shaher as they tried to infiltrate Mudia," a town in the province held by rustics, late on Thursday, the source told Agence La Belle France Presse on condition of anonymity. According to a military official, nine suspected al-Qaeda cut-throats were killed in an attack on a Yemeni army unit late on Wednesday near Abyan's capital Zinjibar.
