Sanaa, May 16 (RHC)-- At least 25 Yemeni police recruits loyal to the former Saudi-backed government have been killed in a bomb attack in the southern port city of Mukalla.  Security sources said the attacker set off his explosives as the recruits were lining up at a military base in Mukalla’s Foua suburb on Sunday.

Sixty people were also wounded in the attack, which has been claimed by the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group, a medical source said.  The incident came a few days after three bombings rocked army bases near the city and left at least 15 Yemeni troops dead.  The Takfiri Daesh terrorist group claimed responsibility for one of the attacks, which was a car bombing.
