A car bomb has exploded near a Shia mosque in the Yemeni capital, Sana’a, killing three people and injuring seven others, reports say.
According to Yemeni media, the blast took place on Saturday in the Old City of Sana’a, inflicting damage on Qubat al-Mahdi Mosque and nearby buildings.
The latest bombing comes days after several blasts targeted the political office of the Houthi Ansarullah movement as well as three mosques in Sana’a, killing at least 31 people.
The ISIL Takfiri terrorist group claimed responsibility for the June 17 deadly attacks, saying they have been carried out in “revenge” against Ansarullah fighters.
