Eight Killed in Clashes in Yemen

At least six gunmen and two soldiers were killed in Yemen in fighting near a damaged oil pipeline east of the capital Sanaa. In a separate incident two gunmen riding a motorbike shot dead Brigadier Fadel Mohammed Ali, an advisor to the Minister of Defense. The fighting broke out when government troops backed by airstrikes tried to secure the pipeline and repair damage inflicted last month.
