Yemen, 50 soldiers killed and around 70 injured in a suicide bomb attack at a military camp in southern city of Aden today.

The Military source said that the bomber detonated his explosives belt as hundreds of troops gathered to receive their monthly pay at the barracks in Al-Sawlaban near the city’s international airport.

The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the attack. Yemeni authorities have for months pressed a campaign against the militants who remain active in the south and east of the war-torn country.
