Yemen's Defence Minister Mohammad Nasser Ahmad Ali escaped an assassination bid by a suicide bomber Tuesday in the southern port city of Aden, but 10 of his entourage were hurt, a security official said.
"A suicide bomber driving a car packed with explosives drove into the minister's motorcade as he was driving out of a tunnel," the official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity.
He added that the minister survived the attack but that 10 people travelling in his entourage were wounded.
