In response to the recent remarks made by the US ambassador to Yemen Gerald Feierstein, the Iranian embassy in Sana'a on Tuesday said that al-Qaeda in Yemen was made by Washington, lashing out at the US diplomat and describing his comments as instigating.Last week, Feierstein accused in a press conference Iran of trying to thwart the GCC-initiated, west backed power transfer deal and of attempting to undermine Yemen's security and stability. He further accused it of backing militant groups in the country such as the Houthi Movement in the north and the Southern Movement in the south with the aim of stirring chaos.In a statement released Tuesday, the Iranian embassy said that the US is trying to consolidate its national security in Yemen, adding that the continuous American drones have killed hundreds of innocent civilians so far.The statement added that Washington's ambassador's moves in Yemen--the last of which was his visit to the southern trouble-torn province of Abyan-- go against the diplomatic protocols and that there are several local sides in Yemen that showed rejection to his constant interference in the internal affairs.Last month, in the wake of dislodging the militants from Abyan's towns, Feierstein paid a visit to Abyan. His visit has prompted condemnation by the pro-Iranian Houthis who said that his visit is a proof that the US is paving the way for occupying Yemen.
