13 dead in south Yemen clashes: military sources

DUBAI: Thirteen fighters were killed in an exchange of artillery fire between pro-government forces and separatists in the southern province of Abyan, military sources told AFP on Saturday.
The Southern Transitional Council lost eight men, including two officers, and six others were wounded late Friday in the latest outbreak of violence between the nominal allies in Yemen’s civil war, an STC source said.
A military source on the Yemeni government side said that five fighters from its ranks were among the dead.
