Islamist militants have exploited Yemen's 14-month civil war which
has pitted the Iran-allied Houthis against supporters of President
Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi, who is backed by a Saudi Arab coalition, to
strike at both sides at will.
Yemen university bomb kills gardener, injures two students(The Conservative Thinkers)
A bomb at Sanaa University
killed a gardener and wounded at least two students on Tuesday, police
and medical sources said, in a relatively rare attack on the
Houthi-ruled Yemeni capital.
A
police official at the scene said the explosion appeared to have
targeted an exhibition organised by the Houthi's Ansarullah group, which
controls most of northern Yemen.
No one has claimed responsibility for the bombing.
Islamist
militants have exploited Yemen's 14-month civil war which has pitted
the Iran-allied Houthis against supporters of President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi, who is backed by a Saudi Arab coalition, to strike at both sides at will.
The
warring parties, pushed by the common threat posed by the emboldened
Islamist militants, have been trying to resolve their differences at
U.N.-sponsored peace talks in Kuwait.
Despite the
conflict, there have been relatively few recent attacks in Sanaa.
Islamic State said it carried out an attack on a mosque in Sanaa last
October that killed seven people.
Officials at the main hospital in Sanaa said the gardener, who they did not name, died of injuries sustained in the explosion.
