The governor of Yemen’s southern port city of Aden was killed in a car bomb attack on Sunday. Targeted as he headed to work, General Jaafar Mohammed Saad died with at least six members of his entourage.
After early reports that the blast was caused by a rocket propelled grenade, ISIL announced in a statement posted on a messaging service it uses that it had detonated a vehicle laden with explosives aimed at Saad’s convoy.
