ImageThree people have been killed in Yemen, including two Belgian women tourists, in an attack by armed men on a tourist convoy.
 
Four other people were said to be wounded on Friday after the men fired on them in the Wadi Dawan desert valley in Yemen's Hadramout region, security officials said.


 
 
"There were about 15 people in the tourist group in Hadramout province, including the driver and guides," an official was quoted by the Reuters news agency as saying.
 
"Security forces are looking for the attackers," he said.
 
 
The victims were named as Claudine Van Caillie, 65, from  Bruges and Katrine Glorie, 54, also from Belgium's Flanders region.
 

Patrick Coucke, 65, was shot in the stomach and seriously wounded. A Yemeni was also injured in the attack, the AFP news agency reported.
