Masked Assailants Set Church Ablaze in Yemen's Aden
2015-09-17
[AnNahar] Unidentified assailants set ablaze one of the few churches in Yemen's second city Aden on Wednesday, a day after it had been damaged by vandals, witnesses said.

The masked arsonists torched St Joseph, a Roman Catholic church in the central Crater neighborhood of the port city, which is controlled by loyalists of the exiled government.
Rearguard Houthis venting their spleen on the way out, Gulf troops unaccepting of Crusader worship sites on Muslim soil, Lutherans? Or possibly just the local lads having a bit of fun.
