A suicide car bomb attack on a checkpoint in south-eastern Yemen, run by local forces backed by the United Arab Emirates, has taken the lives of at least 11 people on Tuesday.

Gunmen opened fire on the checkpoint after a suicide bomber drove his booby-trapped car into the checkpoint northeast of Ataq, the capital of the province of Shabwa, reports Reuters citing officials and residents.
