The attack on the two mosques in the Yemeni capital, which left over 120 people dead and injured, was strongly condemned late Friday by Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi who vowed to retaliated despite the current predicament.
A statement by the Presidential office said that the President expressed his deep condolences to the families of the victims, noting that such acts reflect the perpetrators' inhumane stance which is against the teachings of Islam.
He indicated that extremism had no sect or religion, noting that sectarian violence, if continued, will drag Yemen "into oblivion."
