Adan: Four suspected members of Al-Qaeda organization were killed on Sunday in what local authorities said was a US drone strike on Baida, east of the capital Sanaa. 

The early morning US drone strike targeted a car in Jeef province on the linking road between Marib and Baida provinces, killing four members of Al-Qaeda.

Sunday's strike comes 24 hours after a similar raid killed three suspected Al-Qaeda operatives in southern Shabwa province, which has been a central target of the US military. (QNA)
