Yemeni security forces arrested six suspects for an attack this month that killed four South Korean tourists, Agence France-Presse reported, citing the Yemeni Interior Ministry.

Besides the deadly March 15 attack on the tourists, the cell is also suspected of being behind a bombing a few days later against a convoy carrying South Korean government inspectors that caused no serious injuries, AFP said.

Security forces are hunting other members of the group, which was planning further attacks on tourists and oil installations, AFP quoted the ministry as saying.
