At least five people have been killed in an airstrike carried out by a US killer drone in Yemen’s southern province of Abyan. According to Yemeni tribal sources, the attack was carried out on Sunday in the town of al-Mahfad. The deadly airstrike comes a day after nearly 20 people lost their lives in a similar attack in the province of Baida. Saturday’s drone strike targeted a vehicle travelling towards the southern province of Shabwa. Over the past years, the United States has regularly used unmanned aerial vehicles for attacks and spying in several Muslim countries, including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen. The airstrikes were initiated under former US president, George W. Bush, and have been stepped up under incumbent President Barack Obama.
