Fourteen people, most of them from the same family, have been killed after a power generator exploded in a Yemeni village. Four people were injured in the blast, which flattened a two-storey house in the village of Qadam, in al-Mahwit province, west of the capital Sanaa. Local sources said fuel was stored next to the generator, which had been installed in a small room in the property. Eight women were among the dead. Yemeni authorities confirmed the incident on their website, with the Ministry of Defence claiming the generator had exploded in \"mysterious circumstances.\" Private generators are widely used in Yemen, where cuts to the mains power supply are frequent.
