Yemen asks U.S. for drones to fight al Qaeda | Reuters:Hadi, who came to power in 2011 after months of turmoil forced his predecessor to step down, irked Yemenis last year by giving unequivocal support for Washington's controversial drone strikes, which have increased under President Barack Obama.
"The drones that are conducting operations are part of the cooperation between us and the United States," Hadi told the cadets.
He said Yemen had allowed the United States to undertake such operations because his country did not possess such technology to carry out "these precise military missions".
