2014 hostage rescue operations in Yemen : ウィキペディア英語版 | 2014 hostage rescue operations in Yemen
The 2014 hostage rescue operations in Yemen were missions to rescue hostages held by Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) in Yemen. The first attempt on 26 November 2014 rescued 8 hostages, but five hostages, including the American journalist Luke Somers, were moved by AQAP to another location prior to the raid. The second attempt by US Navy SEALS once again attempted to rescue the hostages, but Luke Somers and South African teacher Pierre Korkie were killed by AQAP during the raid in Shabwah Governorate of Yemen. Although the majority of hostages had been rescued, the operation was still seen as a failure in the West. Media particularly criticized the incapability of American forces to rescue Somers. ==First raid and aftermath== On 26 November 2014, U.S. Navy SEALs and Yemeni special forces attempted a hostage rescue where eight hostages, none American, were freed, but Luke Somers and four others had been moved to another location by AQAP prior to the raid.〔〔 The nationalities of the eight hostages rescued were six Yemenis, one Saudi, and one Ethiopian.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Yemenis Say American Moved Days Before Special Ops Mission to Free Hostages )〕 On 4 December 2014, AQAP threatened to execute Somers within three days if the US government failed to meet unspecified demands.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=US forces raid al-Qaida hideout in Yemen; hostages reported killed )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Barack Obama condemns 'barbaric murder' of Luke Somers )〕 AQAP also said that Somers would be killed if another attempt to rescue the hostages was launched.
