Al-Qaeda blew up a medical center in war-torn Yemen Tuesday, 10 days after executing a dentist it accused of guiding US drone strikes against its militants.
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.
On Tuesday, they blew up the clinic.
