SANAA: Yemeni security officials said Houthi rebels have detained seven local employees of the International Medical Corps, accusing them of spying for foreign intelligence. They said the Houthis raided a hotel the humanitarian group was using in Ibb province, taking the employees to a prison in Sanaa. Meanwhile, three suspected Al-Qaeda members were killed overnight in what local officials believed was a US drone strike in southern Yemen. Residents and local officials said on Friday the attack took place in Mozno in Al-Wadie district of Abyan province.
