On September 7th 2012, a child was injured following the explosion of a live projectile from a previous airstrike allegedly by US forces in the city of Azzan, Shabwa governorate.
Eyewitnesses told Al-Masdar Online that “a shell exploded while a child was passing by one of the buildings that was bombed by drones to target members of Al Qaeda.” This was corroborated by local-language Twitter user @MaherALHDDAD who claimed that the explosive remnants originated from an US airstrike.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
