Two mid-level Al-Qaeda leaders were killed Thursday in an apparent air strike on their car in a remote province of Yemen, Osama bin Laden\'s ancestral homeland, witnesses said. Yemen\'s Defense Ministry confirmed that two Al-Qaeda leaders had been killed in a province where the militant network is active, identifying them as two brothers, Musa\'id and Abdullah Mubarak al-Daghari. But it gave no details as to how they died. \"The car was passing through the Abdan region in Shabwa province when a missile was fired at it, causing it to explode and burn completely. We learned afterward that two men were inside,\" one witness told Reuters, declining to be named due to the sensitivity of the matter. The Defense Ministry said the two brothers, whom it described as dangerous, were killed \"while being pursued by security forces seeking to arrest them.\" The pair was accused by Yemeni authorities of involvement in recent bomb attacks. Some nearby residents said they had seen a drone in the air at the time of the killing, and that drones had been seen repeatedly in the area in recent days. Others reported seeing a rocket followed by an explosion on the ground.   From : Yemen Latest News
