Four alleged AQAP were killed in a possible US drone strike on a vehicle crossing from Jawf province into Marib.

Tribal and security sources described the attack as a drone strike, saying two missiles hit the vehicle. However Marib province was the site of an air and ground offensive by Gulf forces and their local allies against the Houthi militias. While the Saudi-led coalition had held off on targeting al Qaeda, without more information it was not immediately possible to confirm US involvement.
