In a short video released yesterday, Al Qaeda in the Arabian
Peninsula's (AQAP) leader, Qasim al Raymi, reiterated his group's call for
"lone mujahid" attacks in the West. AQAP was an early innovator of
the concept of "individual jihad," but has been eclipsed by its
rivals in the Islamic State in recent years. Raymi is attempting to move AQAP
back to the fore of the "lone mujahid" effort.

The suicide assault left at least seven dead, another 17
wounded, and a further 16 missing. This comes just a week after another eight
Malian troops were killed in an ambush in southern Mali.
