ADEN (Reuters) - A suicide bomber tried to storm the main gate of the Yemeni army's southern command headquarters in the port city of Aden on Wednesday, a security source said, in the latest attack by Islamist militants exploiting the turmoil in the country.

Witnesses and a military source said militants in a separate vehicle also attacked the compound from another side in the al-Tawahi area of Aden, using rocket propelled grenades and automatic weapons.
