A suspected suicide bomber has struck a village in the southern Yemeni province of Abyan, killing some 20 people.
Another 20 were wounded in the attack on a funeral service in the city of Jaar, Yemeni officials said.
Military officials told Associated Press the funeral was for a man linked to militias which had helped the army in their fight against al-Qaeda.
They said five suspected al-Qaeda militants had been killed in a drone strike earlier in the day.
