ICRC aid worker in Yemen wounded in gunmen attack

An International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) aid worker was severely wounded Tuesday after gunmen fired at her car in Yemen\'s capital Sanaa, the police and witnesses said.Blood was seen on the face and chest of the Kazakh aid worker after a bullet penetrated the side window glass of her car and hit her, witnesses said.She was driving with her husband, a New Zealander, when gunmen riding a motorbike attacked them, a few minutes after the two left the ICRC headquarters in southern Sanaa, the witnesses added.The woman was moved to a nearby hospital and is in stable condition, police quoted doctors as saying.An ICRC official confirmed the assassination attempt against the Kazakh aid worker but gave no details.Aid workers have been a target of al-Qaida-linked militants in Yemen.Benjamin Malbrancke, an ICRC delegate to Yemen, was abducted on April 21, 2012 by Yemen-based al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula near the Red Sea town of Al-Hodayda in northwestern Yemen. He was freed three months later after negotiations between the kidnappers and tribal leaders.\"Al-Qaida\'s leaders decided not to abduct any aid worker in the future. So they ordered that any humanitarian aid labor must not be kidnapped for any reason in accordance to Islamic Law,\" said tribal sources who involved in negotiating on the release of Malbrancke.
