Yemen’s president attended a Unification Day military parade in Sana’a today, a day after scores of soldiers were killed by a suicide bomber during a rehearsal for the event.
Abdurabuh Mansur Hadi was accompanied by senior government and military officials, the state-run Saba news agency said. He vowed yesterday to continue the fight against al-Qaeda, whose Yemeni affiliate claimed responsibility for the bombing in an e-mailed statement, saying its target was Defense Minister Mohammed Naser Ahmed.
