The "Islamic State of Iraq and Syria" (ISIS) claimed responsibility for a car bombing that Yemeni security sources said killed 10 people, including civilians, at a security post in Aden on Tuesday (November 14th), AFP reported.
"Eight members of the security forces and two civilians were killed in a car bombing in the central district of Abdul Aziz," Aden's security chief Brig. Shalal Shaya said.
"There are a large number of wounded, some of them in serious condition," he said.
Witnesses said they heard a loud explosion followed by gunfire at the main office of UAE-trained security forces in charge of guarding state-owned facilities.
The Zayed bin Sultan mosque, which is located near the security office, was also damaged in the attack.
