ADEN - At least nine people were killed and dozens injured when a blast struck a military graduation parade in Yemen's southern province of al-Dhalea on Sunday, witnesses and medics said.

In a statement on Twitter, the southern forces controlling al-Dhalea accused the Houthi rebels of firing a missile at the parade.

There was no comment yet from the Houthi rebels who control the northern part of al-Dhalea.
