Al-Quaeda leader ambushed by Yemen
Yemeni war planes launched an attack on the rural home of al Qaeda leader Ayed al-Shabwani on Wednesday. Details of the strike, including if Shabwani was successfully targeted, were unknown as of press time.
Yemen declared war on al Qaeda last week after Sanaa officials received pressure to crack down on suspected terrorists inside its borders.
British government officials have suspended Yemenia airline flights to London, citing security concerns.
Hippo escapes from Montenegro zoo
Montenegro’s lone hippopotamus escaped from the Podgorica Zoo Wednesday during a very intense week of flooding. Zoo officials stated that the hippopotamus, a female named Nikica, escaped her cage and swam out of the zoo.
The hippopotamus sought shelter one mile outside of zoo grounds on a dry piece of land. Zoo officials claim the animal is not dangerous and is accustomed to the presence of people.
Guards must wait until flood waters recede to lure Nikica back to her enclosure, but in the interim, villagers and one guard are bringing the animal food for survival.
