After executing dentist : Al-Qaeda blows up Yemen clinic

The clinic in the Somaa district of Al-Baida province was where the dentist worked before his execution, a local official told AFP.
The militant shot Motthar al-Youssoufi, then crucified his body and left it outside the health centre on August 15.
