A local photographer who works with AFP was seriously wounded in a missile strike on Sunday in southwest Yemen, his colleagues said.
Saleh Al-Obeidi was in an armored car with a pro-government officer when their vehicle was struck by a heat-guided missile near the government-held Red Sea town of Mokha, a journalist said.
The two wounded men were evacuated by helicopter for medical treatment, he added.
Another journalist said Al-Obeidi suffered severe burns to his face and hands.
It was not immediately possible to identify the source of the missile.
