US drone strike kills 4 suspected Al-Qaeda members

Shortly after the US Terror alert and the closure of US embassies and official buildings, the threat becomes clearer. According to Olivier Guitta, the menace is indeed more likely to come from Yemen, where Al-Qaeda, and its regional franchise the AQAP, appears to be the strongest. A confluence of events pushed the US Administration to close the embassies: the order given by Ayman al-Zawahiri to "get prepared to attack"or the arrival of Al-Qaeda members in Sana'a for instance. As the menace becomes more accurate, the US military has decided to step up, using drone strikes, such as the one that killed 4 Al-Qaeda members, to prevent terrorist attacks.
