Yemen

Yemeni soldiers near Sana’a kidnapped a brigade commander after not being paid for three months. Security forces detained members of an al Qaeda cell responsible for the May 21 suicide attack in Sana’a that killed more than 100 soldiers. Security officials said that some AQAP fighters have fled to Oman.
