Several others are reported to have been wounded. The bus was travelling on the road leading to Sanaa international airport, near the base, an official said. The government is battling al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula militants who often target the military.

"The bomb exploded in the rear part of the bus and six of our colleagues were immediately killed," he told Reuters news agency.
