So it appears that ISIS, which claimed responsibility for the terror attacks on Brussels that injured more than 200, weren’t the only ones detonating bombs today. The Pentagon is reporting Tuesday night that it killed —that is, “removed from the battlefield” — dozens of fighters in a “massive” airstrike on an Al-Qaeda training camp in Yemen.

Remember Yemen? The Pentagon says it killed "dozens" in an unspecified airstrike at an AQAP training camp there this morning.
