23 Dec, 2014

ADEN: Five bombs exploded on Tuesday in Sanaa's old quarter, where many supporters of Houthi group live, killing at least one person and wounding another, a Yemeni security official said.

No one has claimed responsibility for the attacks.

Witnesses said the blasts occurred early in the morning at a time when only a few people were on the streets. One of the bombs exploded when a member of the Houthi militia tried to dismantle it, residents said.

Several houses and some cars were damaged from the explosions.
