Suspected US drone kills 6 militants in Yemen

SANAA, Yemen (AP) - A suspected U.S. drone strike in Yemen killed six alleged al-Qaida militants today in one of the group’s former strongholds in a central province, a military official said. The strike - the sixth by a U.S. drone over the past 10 days - came as Yemen remained on high alert following threats of a terror attack targeting Western and Yemeni government interests.
