Gunmen kill 5 Yemeni troops guarding LNG export plant

ADEN - Suspected al-Qaida militants killed five Yemeni soldiers in their sleep early on Sunday in an attack on forces guarding the country's only liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal in southern Yemen, a local official said.
The attack follows an escalating campaign of drone strikes by the United States over the past two weeks after a worldwide travel warning that forced Washington to close its embassy in Sanaa and evacuate some staff.
