Sayoun : At least one Yemeni soldier was killed and 17 people were wounded as an explosive-laden car rammed into a camp affiliated with the Central Security Forces in the eastern province of Hadramout.

The attack caused damages to the camp and some nearby buildings, a security source has said.

Hadramout governor Saleh al-Khanbashi described the attack which targeted on Friday a camp of the Central Security in Sayo’un city as a criminal terrorist act, threatening those who are behind this coward act that they will be tracked down and brought to justice.

In a statement to Saba, al-Khanbashi noted that security systems recognised, through the investigations in the attack during the past few hours, identity of the attacker but refused to mention his name to secure privacy of investigations.

He added that the executor of the attack was driving a booby-trapped car model KIA 2003, white colored, at high speed towards the camp gates the thing which made the guard start fire on him.
