USS Cole bomb suspects recaptured
Yemen has re-arrested two militants, suspected of masterminding the bombing of a US warship in October 2000.

Jamal al-Badawi and Fahd al-Qusaa were indicted last May by a US court for the attack which killed 17 on the USS Cole.

One of the militants was reported injured in a shoot-out in Abyan province, prior to their capture.

The pair are the last of 10 escapees to be recaptured, after a prison break-out last year which was an embarrassment to the Yemeni authorities.
