ADEN, Yemen – A suicide bomber killed at least 6 people, including 4 civilians, Sunday, January 17, in an attack on the residence of the police chief of Yemen's southern city of Aden, security official said.
"A suicide bomber detonated his explosive-laden minibus at the entrance of the house of General Shalal Shaea," in the neighbourhood of Tawahi, the official told Agence France-Presse.
The police chief was not hurt, he said.
But another official said "at least six people, including four civilians, were killed in the attack".
It was the latest attack in a wave of unrest that has rocked the port city, ised as a base for the government, which was forced to flee Sanaa in September 2014 after Iran-backed Huthi rebels swept into the capital.
It was not immediately clear who was behind the bombing.
