Yemen disbands 'Mossad-sponsored cell'

Yemen has reportedly disbanded a 'terrorist cell' which was allegedly operating under the supervision of Israeli intelligence services.

"A terrorist cell was arrested five days ago and will be referred to the judicial authorities for its links with the Israeli intelligence services," Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh told Saba news agency on Monday.

The president did not give more details on the group's alleged links to Israel's spy agencies. "Details of the trial will be announced later," he added.

In August, Yemeni security forces arrested five suspected al-Qaeda militants in Hadramawt, days after the authorities revealed they had uncovered a new "terrorist" cell near the port city of al-Mukalla.
