Yemen: U.S. Drone Strike Kills 2; Suicide Bomb at Mosque Kills 25 
------------------------------------------------------------------


 
In Yemen, local officials say a U.S. drone strike has killed two people
in Marib province, east of the capital Sana'a, on Tuesday night. The
officials are describing the victims as suspected members of al-Qaeda.
Meanwhile, Yemeni officials say at least 25 people have died in Sana'a
after a suicide bomber attacked a Houthi-controlled mosque during
prayers for the Eid al-Adha holiday Thursday. The attack comes a year
into the fighting between the Houthis and the U.S.-backed, Saudi-led
coalition forces, which has killed more than 4,000 people.
