Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has announced Yemen's Abyan province as an "Islamic emirate". The statement was issued by the group and posted on the internet. "From now on, women who go out to the markets need to be accompanied by a relative, who carry a proof by identity cards, or passports," it said.
Earlier this week, it was reported that gunmen took control on the presidential palace complex, communications facilities and a local ammunitions factory.

"
On Saturday, the building of the presidential palace and the local radio station in the Directorate of "Jaar", Abyan governorate, south of Yemen, was surrounded by gunmen. The gunmen have distributing leaflets calling for the security men to surrender and hand over their weapons.

Wa Salamu Alejkum!
