Les attaques à coups de #drones, c’est un peu comme les attentats en Irak : il est presque impossible d’en tenir le compte en suivant la presse. Chaque dépêche concernant la Syrie se termine systématiquement par le rappel du nombre de morts depuis le début des événements (évaluées depuis Londres) ; mais pour les tueries provoquées par les drones américains (Pakistan, Yemen, Soudan…), il n’y a jamais (tout aussi systématiquement) de rappel du décompte total.

At least five people suspected of having links to al-Qaeda and three civilians have been killed by a US drone strike in central Yemen, officials and local tribal leaders say.
The strikes took place in the city of Radaa, in al-Bayda province, on Sunday, on two vehicles that were believed to be carrying armed fighters, they said.
“Five were killed and eight injured and we are still investigating who these men are and in what way they were linked to al Qaeda,” one official said.
Three women were also killed in the strike, a local tribal chief told the AFP news agency. He said that the strike had targeted Abdulraouf al-Dahab, a local al-Qaeda leader, but that it failed to kill him.
