U.S. Ramps Up Drone Strikes In Yemen
ResumeA U.S. drone strike killed at least six alleged militants in Yemen today.
It's the sixth such strike in the past 10 days and it seems to be part of the response to a recent terrorist threat against the West.
This period of increased drone strikes follows a period when there hadn't been any, and raises questions about where the drone strategy stands at this point.
