US airstrikes reportedly targeted alleged AQAP camps in the Mogan area of Al Maraqisha, Abyan governorate, overnight from April 2nd to April 3rd 2017. There were no known associated reports of civilian harm, or of belligerent casualties.<\/p>\n

According to Aden al-Ghad, a warplane launched several missiles at various locations in the area. Some sources such as Yemenat instead claimed that the strikes had been carried out by a drone.<\/p>\n

This reported event took place amid a dramatic intensification of US operations against AQAP, beginning in March 2017. On April 3rd, Pentagon spokesperson Captain Jeff Davis said that, since February 28th 2017, 70 US airstrikes were conducted in Yemen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","country":[435],"belligerent":[430],"strike_type":[431,434],"cause_of_death":[448],"targeted_belligerents":[491],"strike_status":[832],"civilian_harm_reported":[835],"civilian_harm_status":[],"belligerent_assessment":[868],"geolocation_assessor":[],"declassified_document":[900],"geolocation_status":[920],"observation":[],"munition":[],"casualty":[],"impact":[],"documentation":[],"citation":[],"geolocation_observation":[],"protected_persons":[],"infrastructure":[],"infrastructure_affiliation":[],"infrastructure_declared_target":[],"infrastructure_destruction":[],"profession":[],"casualty_affiliation":[],"class_list":["post-65258","civ","type-civ","status-publish","hentry","country-yemen","belligerent-us-forces","strike_type-airstrike","strike_type-drone-strike","cause_of_death-heavy-weapons-and-explosive-munitions","targeted_belligerents-al-qaeda-in-the-arabian-peninsula-aqap","strike_status-likely-strike","civilian_harm_reported-no","belligerent_assessment-not-yet-assessed","declassified_document-no","geolocation_status-unassigned"],"acf":{"latitude":13.425116,"longitude":46.171369,"geolocation_accuracy":"village","multiple_location_incident":null,"geolocations":[{"latitude":13.425116,"longitude":46.171369,"geolocation_accuracy":"village","primary_coordinate":true}],"geojson":null,"show_geolocation_caption":false,"geojson_caption":"","media_geolocation":null,"geolocation_notes":"Reports of the incident mention the village of Mojan (\u0645\u0648\u062c\u0627\u0646), for which the coordinates are: 13.425116, 46.171369.
