Al Qaeda leader killed in US drone strike in Yemen



SANAA // Fahd Al Quso, a senior Al Qaeda leader in Yemen, was killed this evening by an air strike in the south-eastern province of Shabwa, security and local officials said.

The officials said Al Quso was killed along with another comrade in a strike by a suspected US drone near his house in the mountainous region called Rafadh.

Al Quso, 37, was one of the most wanted terrorists by the United States.

He stood trial on charges of being involved in the suicide attack on the USS Cole destroyer in Aden port in 2000 in which 17 sailors were killed.

Teaching your child to save

Pre-school (three - five years)

You can’t yet talk about investing or borrowing, but introduce a “classic” money bank and start putting gifts and allowances away. When the child wants a specific toy, have them save for it and help them track their progress.

Early childhood (six - eight years)

Replace the money bank with three jars labelled ‘saving’, ‘spending’ and ‘sharing’. Have the child divide their allowance into the three jars each week and explain their choices in splitting their pocket money. A guide could be 25 per cent saving, 50 per cent spending, 25 per cent for charity and gift-giving.

Middle childhood (nine - 11 years)

Open a bank savings account and help your child establish a budget and set a savings goal. Introduce the notion of ‘paying yourself first’ by putting away savings as soon as your allowance is paid.

Young teens (12 - 14 years)

Change your child’s allowance from weekly to monthly and help them pinpoint long-range goals such as a trip, so they can start longer-term saving and find new ways to increase their saving.

Teenage (15 - 18 years)

Discuss mutual expectations about university costs and identify what they can help fund and set goals. Don’t pay for everything, so they can experience the pride of contributing.

Young adulthood (19 - 22 years)

Discuss post-graduation plans and future life goals, quantify expenses such as first apartment, work wardrobe, holidays and help them continue to save towards these goals.
