KSA-led alliance retakes army HQ from suicides; car bombs kill 10

Yemeni government forces supported by a Saudi-led coalition recaptured army headquarters at Aden airport from suspected extremists after an hours-long firefight on Wednesday, the base commander said.
There was no immediate word on the fate of the officers who had been inside the building when it was seized by between 15 and 20 militants in the early hours.
The terrorists had penetrated the base after detonating two car bombs that killed at least 10 soldiers in the latest attack on security forces to hit the southern port city.
“Troops and special forces have regained control of the base after pushing back the radicals, several of whom were killed in the fighting,” base commander General Nasser Sarie said.
The recapture of the headquarters building came after troops exchanged rocket-propelled grenade and small arms fire with the terrorists throughout the morning.
Apache attack helicopters of a Saudi-led military coalition were in the skies above the base, witnesses said. The base commander said coalition forces had assisted in the recapture of the headquarters building.
