WASHINGTON – U.S. authorities believe two packages laden with explosives that were found in cargo shipment from Yemen may have been shipped by suspected militants linked to language schools there, officials say.
Yemeni officials said late Saturday that security forces had arrested two people connected to a probe into who sent the two explosive-laden packages to the U.S. President Ali Abdullah Saleh said earlier during a news conference Saturday that security forces had surrounded the house of one suspect in the probe.
