Saudi militants among attackers of ministry complex, investigators say

Aden: Yemeni military investigators say 12 militants, mostly Saudi nationals, were responsible for a brazen attack on the Defence Ministry’s complex in the capital.

The committee led by Yemen’s Chief of Staff Gen Ahmad Al Ashwal put out a report on Friday that set the death toll at 56, with another 215 wounded.

It described Thursday’s attack as a two-stage operation, in which attackers disguised in military uniform drove a car packed with explosives into the complex, blew it up, then split into two groups. One swept through a military hospital while the second group attacked a laboratory. Both killed everyone they found.

A copy of the report was obtained by The Associated Press. Officials earlier said 11 militants were killed. It was not clear if the 12th attacker was captured or escaped.
