Almotamar.net - An official security source in Yemen said Monday that monitoring and follow-up of al-Qaeda terrorist elements resulted in dealing an air strike at 10 pm Sunday evening to a number of those elements while they were present in the area of Jeezat Ahl Qatan of Modia district, Abyan province.
The source said the air strike resulted in killing two of the leading elements in the organisation that were planning to implement terrorist operations against vital installations.
The source went on to say that the security authorities would continue chasing the terrorist elements and those violating the law and order and would not allow anyone to threaten the homeland’s security and stability.
In 2007 the opposition Yemen Congregation for Reform (Islah) Islamic oriented Party maintained its having political and media sway over the Joint meeting Parties (JMP) block, also consisting of Yemen Socialist Party and the Nasserite Unionist Organisation.
Yemen is practically a cool green paradise, with crisp mountain air, enormous acacia trees, pristine coral reefs and verdant fields bursting with khat, a psychoactive plant that induces mild euphoria.
Sana'a: Yemen will not be able to combat terror without regional and international cooperation, said a Yemeni official, who warned of the ramifications of letting Yemen fight terrorism alone.
Doctors use the word “crisis” to describe the point at which a patient either starts to recover or dies. President George W. Bush’s Iraqi patient now seems to have reached that point. Most commentators appear to think that Bush’s latest prescription – a surge of 20,000 additional troops to suppress the militias in Baghdad – will, at best, merely postpone the inevitable death of his dream of a democratic Iraq. Yet as “Battle of Baghdad” begins, factors beyond Bush’s control and not of his making (at least not intentionally) may just save Iraq from its doom.
