The two leaders of Al-Qaeda killed in an airstrike in southern Yemen two days ago have been identified as Jamil Al-Anbari and Samir Al-Sayari.
Al-Anbari was the leader of Al-Qaeda in Abyan, police director in the province Abdul Razaq al-Marwani said on Tuesday.
Al-Marwani also revealed that a third suspect was killed in the operation and identified as Ahmed al-Zarba after the bodies of the three were examined.
The three were killed on Sunday night while planning to attack vital facilities.
The fresh raid took place in Modia district in the province of Abyan where the first successful terror operation took place last year.
In 2009, other terror operations were carried out in the south and north in which scores of al-Qaeda suspects were killed, wounded and arrested.
They were hailed regionally and internationally as a model.
