Washington, DC

The
United States strongly condemns yesterday’s AQAP attack against Yemeni
military forces that brutally killed dozens of soldiers and wounded
scores more. We extend our deepest condolences to the friends and loved
ones of the victims of this heinous attack, which illustrates AQAP’s
complete disregard for human life. The United States will continue to
support President Hadi and the Yemeni people as they work to realize
their aspirations for a brighter and more prosperous future.
