Lahj: Security alert after Al-Qaeda threats
[Yemen Post] Public committees that were formed from rustics in some districts of Lahj governorate tossed in the calaboose on Monday eight Al-Qaeda suspects after receiving threats of a surprise attack by Al-Qaeda hard boyz against Lahj, local sources said. The sources said that tow of the arrestees are Syrian nationals, two are Saudi nationals and the four others are Yemenis. They said thon the lam amounts of foreign currencies modern weapons and ammunitions were found on the vehicle the hard boyz had, reaffirming that the rustics handed over the hard boyz to the military services there and they were later transferred to Al-Anad camp. Local sources confirmed that Ansar Al-Shariah repeatedly threatened to storm Yafa'a and take control on the town. Meanwhile, ...back at the pond, the radioactive tadpoles grown into frogs. Really big frogs, in fact... Military sources had cited that the Yemeni army made progress against Ansar Al-Shariah in Abyan ...a governorate of Yemen. The region was a base to the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army terrorist group until it dropped the name and joined al-Qaeda. Its capital is Zinjibar. In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirateafter seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same. Yemeni government forces launched an effort to re-establish control of the region when President-for-Life Saleh was tossed and the carnage continues... and could reach to the heart of Zinjibar after air-fighters launched strikes on the town. According to Yemen's Defense Ministry, most veteran leaders of Al-Qaeda were killed and some others could escape outside the governorate of Abyan. It stated that it will expand it operations to purge Abyan of Al-Qaeda, ensure the return of the displaced persons, and resume security and stability to the city. The U.S. ambassador to Yemen, Gerald Feierstein, has attributed the army's progress to changes made by President Abdurabu Mansur Hadi in the military's leadership. Meanwhile, ...back at the fist fight, Jake ducked another roundhouse, then parried with his left, then with his right, finally with his chin... Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigations Ropert Muleler arrived in Sana'a on Tuesday and discussed with Hadi efforts of counterterrorism, in particular fighting against Al-Qaeda. Meanwhile, ...back at the Esquimeau village our hero was receiving a quick lesson in aeronautics...... Ansar Al-Sharia threaten to behead more than seventy soldiers who were captured last month as the hard boyz surprisingly attacked military positions. Posted by: Fred 2012-04-26 |
