An airstrike killed four al-Qaida militants on Friday in a southern district of Yemen that has been under the group's control for around a year, officials said.
They said a gas pipeline in the same region was attacked later in the day in an operation likely carried out by militants.
The military officials from Shabwa province said that an unmanned US drone launched the strike on a vehicle carrying seven militants in the district of Azan. The officials said four were killed, while three were critically wounded and under treatment in a nearby al-Qaida-run clinic in Shabwa.
