HeadlineApr 21, 2014

Dozens of people have been killed in two consecutive days of U.S. drone attacks inside Yemen. Around 15 people died on Saturday when a U.S. missile hit a road in the central province of al-Bayda. Between three to six civilians were killed, while the rest were described as suspected al-Qaeda militants. On Sunday, around 25 people were killed in two U.S. attacks on southern areas. The victims were also described as suspected al-Qaeda militants. Another drone attack was reportedly carried out earlier today, but details are unclear.
