Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) claimed responsibility for a deadly June attack on the country's intelligence headquarters in the southern port city of Aden in a communiqué released on June 11, 2010 on several jihadist websites. "This attack comes as a response to the tyrannical aggression that reached our people in Maarib province and deliberately humiliates the tribes with the pretext of fighting terrorism," the statment said.  "Then they falsely claim that they struck the fighters with painful blows, but we didn't see anything except the killing of women and destruction of mosques and the striking of homes."
