The victims of a suspected al Qaeda suicide car bomb attack at a temple in Yemen include seven Spanish tourists and their two Yemeni drivers and guides. They were reportedly concluding a visit to the 3,000-year-old Queen of Sheba temple, a popular attraction in Marib, when the attack took place. Six other Spanish tourists and two Yemeni guides were wounded. Reports Reuters: “Security sources told Reuters earlier the attack followed an al Qaeda statement last week demanding the release of some of its members jailed in Yemen and warned of unspecified actions.”
