"The rebels identified the man, who is seen receiving medical attention in the video, as Ahmed Abdullah Mohammed al-Amri," al-Jazeera reports. 

The video – which has not been independently verified – ishere, along with several others posted on Facebook under the name

On Sunday, the Yemeni military lost another warplane – the third to crash since Operation Scorched Earth began on August 12. As on previous occasions, the rebels said they shot it down and the government blamed a technical fault.
