Death toll in IS Yemen mosque attack rises to 32

Twin bombings claimed by the Islamic State group against a Shiite mosque in the Yemeni capital killed at least 32 people, medical sources said in an updated toll on Thursday. A further 92 people were wounded in Wednesday’s bombings, the latest in a string of attacks carried out by the Sunni extremist group against Shiite targets in Yemen since March. A suicide bomber blew himself up inside the mosque in the <g data-gr-id="9">Jarraf</g> district of north Sanaa, and a car bomb was detonated outside minutes later. The neighbourhood is home to many senior figures in the Huthi rebel movement which has controlled the capital since September last year.
