At least six Yemeni soldiers have been killed and several others wounded in a twin car bombing in southeastern Yemen.
The army says the attacks were carried out on Tuesday when bombers rammed their explosive-laden vehicles into military headquarters in Seiyun, the second largest city in Hadramout Province.
Witnesses say that gunshots were heard following the blasts at the compound.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack. However, a branch of the al-Qaeda militant group in Yemen has previously carried out similar attacks against Yemeni military and civilian targets.
Al-Qaeda-linked violence against Yemeni security forces has been growing since February 2012, when President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi came to power in a one-man election backed by Saudi Arabia and the United States.
