Yemen Violence Claims Four Lives
2015-03-11
[AnNahar] Violence in Yemen claimed four lives Tuesday, various sources said, with one fatal shooting attributed to al-Qaeda.

In al-Qatan, in the terror network's stronghold of Hadramawt province, two al-Qaeda gunnies on a cycle of violence bumped off an officer of the intelligence services, a local official said.

In Huta, capital of Lahij province, gunnies tried to rob a post office, killing two soldiers guarding it and wounding a third, police said.

And unidentified gunnies firing from a car killed a retired colonel, a police official said.

Attacks on members of the security forces are common in the south and southwest of Yemen, where violence has increased since a Shiite militia known as Huthis seized the capital in recent months.
All in all, a fairly quiet day.
