:01:12. > :01:17.travel alert for US citizens and says there is a significant threat
:01:17. > :01:22.in the Middle East and North Africa. It is an al-Qaeda affiliated threat,
:01:22. > :01:29.yes. Is the threat to blow up an embassy, consulate or something
:01:29. > :01:35.else? That part of it is unspecified but the intent seems clear. The
:01:35. > :01:41.intent is to attack Western and not just US interests. US diplomats
:01:41. > :01:47.across a huge area will close on Sunday and officials fear tourist
:01:47. > :01:51.sites could also be targets. The US wants no repeat of this, the attack

:01:56. > :02:03.people including its ambassador. Written is responding to the alert,

:02:07. > :02:12.share a lot of intelligent and the British say it is a precautionary
:02:12. > :02:15.measure. The British has not issued a regionwide travel alert and at the
:02:15. > :02:20.moment it says just the one embassy will be closed in the next couple of
:02:20. > :02:26.days. It has said some staff have been withdrawn due to what it says
:02:26. > :02:29.are security concerns. Yemen is home to al-Qaeda's offshoot in the
:02:29. > :02:36.Arabian Peninsula. It is suspected of previous terror plots, including
:02:36. > :02:40.trying to blow up a plane bound for Detroit on Christmas Day 2009, and
:02:41. > :02:45.targeting the UK deputy ambassador in 2010. He escaped a suicide bomb
:02:45. > :02:50.attack on his convoy. Earlier this week, President Obama met Yemen's
:02:50. > :02:56.president and talked about al-Qaeda in the Arabian peninsula. This
:02:56. > :02:59.latest alert shows how potent force it thinks the threat is.
