Yemeni Prime Minister Maeen Abdulmalik directed the security committee to conduct an urgent investigation into the explosion that took place in the vicinity of Aden International Airport, south of the country, according to the German News Agency. Saba News Agency reported that Abdulmalik followed up "with the security committee in Aden, the circumstances of the terrorist attack that took place at Aden International Airport's gate at the Khour Maksar district," killing and injuring dozens, including children. Abdulmalik stressed the need to boost security vigilance and foil any attempt that undermines Aden's security and stability, indicating that the circumstances of the attack are being followed up and the results will be announced as soon as possible. At least 12 civilians, including children, were killed and more than 15 others injured Saturday near the airport of Aden when a car bomb was detonated near a checkpoint. No one has yet claimed responsibility for Saturday's blast.
