As Associated Press informs, in the result of act of terrorism 8 people were killed, 6 of which, on preliminary data, were the citizens of Spain. Some more people have been wounded. Some hours later after explosion no radical grouping has taken the responsibility for act of terrorism, however, sources in a local police declare, that they had the information on preparations of acts of terrorism by the international network “Al-Qaeda”. Officially local authorities prefer to not give comments. The government of Yemen for several times has declared about the intention to struggle with “Al-Qaeda”, however, there is an information, that this terrorist network has the branched out network in this country. In Yemen the well-known act of terrorism of 2000, after which the American authorities have offered the greater award for capture of Osama Ben Laden, has been accomplished. Then in port of the city of Aden there was an explosion by American military ship Cole, in the result of which 17 seamen - citizens of the USA - were killed. It is necessary to note, that not so many tourists go to Yemen as some groups of kidnappers operate in the country.
