The United States has carried out at least one new air strike on al-Qaeda in Yemen, keeping up the pressure on the militants after starting a new push last week.
The strike was overnight on Sunday, following and several strikes since Saturday, US officials told Reuters.
Since a January commando raid, the United States has shown a desire to both strike al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) and to recover from what US officials acknowledge has been an intelligence shortfall about the group since Yemen's civil war forced the closure of the US embassy in 2015.
