Gunmen opened fire on an army patrol in south Yemen’s Abyan province, killing one soldier and wounding three others, BBC News reported Thursday (September 9th).

Attackers armed with machine guns shot a passing army convoy in the town of Mudiya. A Yemeni security official blamed the attack on al-Qaeda militants.

Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has recently claimed responsibility for several attacks on military forces, including an attack in the town of Jaar that killed 11 soldiers and one civilian.
