A homemade bomb blast struck a regular patrol of the pro-government forces in Yemen’s oil-rich province of Shabwa, killing a military officer and a soldier.
The explosion was caused by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) targetting a patrol of Shabwa’s defense troops when it was passing by a public market in Ataq, capital of Shabwa.
The explosion that rocked the area also injured 2 soldiers and a number of civilians gathering in the area.
