Yemen witnessed an increase of the violent acts that are carried out by Al-Qaeda cut-thoats. More than 185 Yemenis were killed in Al-Qaeda attack on some military positions of Abyan.

The Yemeni army launched strikes on Friday against the strongholds of Al-Qaeda in Abyan and Al-Badha, killing at least 40 cut-thoats.
