Yemen air strike kills two al-Qaeda leaders

ABYAN, March 15 (Saba) - The Yemeni air
forces killed on Sunday evening two senior al-Qaeda members in an air strike at
Modiah
district in Abyan province, southern Yemen, a security source said.
The source told Saba that the two al-Qaeda leaders were planning to carry out
terrorist acts against vital installations in the country.
"The security services will continue to hunt for terrorist elements and will not
allow any frivolous to harm the country's security and stability", the source made
it clear.
The authorities have warned the people against sheltering terrorist suspects and
outlaw elements, saying those who may be found guilty of sympathizing with
fugitives would
be punished.
Yemen has reinforced security measures to crackdown on alleged hideouts of al-Qaeda
in the country since December 2009.
Yemen's war against al-Qaeda has resulted in killing many leaders of al-Qaeda in
the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP).
