Four Indian nurses were among at least 16 people killed on Friday, when militants hit a home for the elderly in Aden, Yemen, reports middleeasteye.net, quoting Sky News Arabia.

One of the Indian nurses is said to have survived by hiding in the cold room used to store medication. The centre is being run by a charitable organisation.

A local news site, Aden al-Ghad, quoting a survivor, said 12 of the centre's residents were also killed when the militants burst in and began firing machine guns at random.

The report says that a source in the centre's administration told the Aden al-Ghad that four militants had gained access by telling the guard they were there to visit their mother.
