|
| By Mohammed Mukhashaf ADEN (Reuters) - Al Qaeda militants kidnapped 14 Yemeni soldiers returning home by bus from duty in eastern Yemen on Friday and executed them in what officials said was an apparent act of revenge for a recent army crackdown in the area. The Yemeni army has recently sent extra troops to the Wadi Hadramout region in northeastern Yemen to confront attempts by al Qaeda's local affiliate, Ansar al Sharia, to declare an Islamic emirate in the main regional city of Seiyoun. Residents and officials said people in the area found the bodies of the 14 riddled with bullets on a road near Seiyoun, three hours after they were abducted from a public bus. "The mujahideen ordered the soldiers down from the bus, interrogated them, and checked their military IDs and that they belonged to contingents based in Seiyoun," the group said in a news report posted online. |
| Hacking group wants to play nice with automakers |

The non-profit group, known as "I am the Cavalry," is asking attendees at this weekend's Def Con hacking conference in Las Vegas to sign an open letter to "Automotive CEOs" to ask them to implement basic guidelines to defend cars from cyber attacks. "Now is the time for the automotive industry and the security community to connect and collaborate." Vehicles rely on tiny computers to manage everything form engines and brakes to navigation, air conditioning and windshield wipers. The Cavalry group is scheduled to make a presentation at Def Con on Saturday about efforts to improve auto security. They will not disclose any specific problems that might embarrass carmakers, said Josh Corman, a security industry professional who co-founded the group a year ago.
