SANAA, Yemen, Nov. 4 (UPI) -- U.S. drone strikes in Yemen on Tuesday killed at least nine people believed to be al-Qaida members.
The three airstrikes targeted an al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula convoy traveling in Al Baitha province, security officials told CNN. The convoy was en route to fight Shia Houthi rebels, a militant group that recently pushed AQAP back from its stronghold in Al Baitha.
