ANAA, Yemen (AP) — Tribal leaders and security officials in Yemen say the U.S. has carried out its first drone strike in the country since its president resigned.
They say the strike Monday on a vehicle in an area called Hareib, located between the provinces of Marib and Shabwa, killed three suspected al-Qaeda militants.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to journalists.
