This photo taken in 2013 shows tribal chief Sheikh Abdel-Raouf al-Dhahab in Yemen. Al-Dhahab, the main figure killed in last month’s U.S. raid in Yemen targeting al-Qaida, was a tribal leader who was allied to the country’s U.S.- and Saudi-backed president and had been enlisted to fight Shiite rebels, according to military officials, tribal figures and relatives. Survivors and witnesses say at least 25 Yemenis were killed, including 10 children and nine women, raising outrage in Yemen and prompting the government to ask Washington for a review of the Jan. 29, 2017 assault on the tiny village of Yakla.
