Video - ISIS Attacks Counterterrorism HQ In Yemen – 14 Dead

The death cult known as ISIS has largely been defeated in Iraq and Syria and has now moved its territory towards Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. In this last country, it made its presence known yesterday when two suicide bombers drove cars into the Yemen counter-terrorism headquarters of the army, located in the southern town of Aden, killing 14 people and injuring 43 others.

After the attack, Yemeni authorities set up a roadblock to try and capture other members of the terrorist cell, but to no avail.

Civil war has been raging in Yemen for three years now and the country has also become a battleground for a fake proxy war between the major regional powers in the Middle East: Iran and Saudi Arabia.

In the past few months, Iran has supplied Yemeni rebels with missiles to target the Saudi Arabian airports. The Saudis in return have sent tanks to border regions.

According to the Un, the situation in Yemen is bound to become similar to Syria if no help reaches the war-torn country.
