Missile Hits Fledgling Yemen Gov`t Headquarters in Aden - VIDEO
A missile hit the Qasr hotel in Aden which holds the headquarters of the fledgling Yemeni government killing 12, since its return from exile in Saudi Arabia.
At least 12 people were killed after unknown assailants fired a missile at a hotel in Yemen`s Aden which houses the many of the fledgling government`s senior officials, CNN reported citing government officials.

According to Reuters, a total of three missiles of an unknown type were fired, one hitting the gates of the hotel, another landed nearby and a third landing in a different district of Aden.

Senior officials including the vice president are said to be unhurt by the attack, while the deposed president Hadi is said to be outside the country. Yemen has been in the midst of an armed conflict after Houthi militias took power in the country`s capital, prompting intervention from a Saudi Arabia-led coalition which has escalated into a ground offensive.
