Yemen Mosque Eid Bomb Blast; ISIL Affiliate Claims Responsibility

 A Yemen-based affiliate of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) armed group has claimed responsibility for a suicide bombing in the rebel-held capital of Sanaa that killed 25 people during prayers for the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha.
The twin explosions, which also wounded dozens of worshippers, tore through the al-Bolayli mosque on Thursday morning, according to Yemeni security officials.
The mosque is located in an area where many residents support the Shia rebels, also known as Houthis, who have controlled Sanaa since last September
