An explosion caused by a roadside bomb targeted on Saturday a military convoy in Yemen's southern port city of Aden, causing no casualties, a security official told Xinhua.

 

"An explosive device apparently planted on the side of a main road exploded, targeting military vehicles of the anti-Houthi Saudi-led military coalition in Aden," the agency quoted local security source on condition of anonymity.

 

The source said that the explosion only caused damage to the vehicles of the military convoy, causing no casualties.

 

According to the source, the military vehicles were heading to the main headquarters of the Saudi Arabia-led coalition in Aden's western part.

 

No group has claimed responsibility for the bombing yet, however, security sources noted that "the initial information found that incident had been masterminded by terror elements."
