Looks like, with the knowledge of the Yemeni government, the CIA fired a Hellfire missile from a Predator drone at the car carrying these people.

Sources identified one of the dead as Abu Ali, also known as Qaed Senyan al-Harthi, a former bin Laden security guard who was believed to have played a major role in the October 2000 attack on the destroyer Cole that killed 17 sailors.

Walid Al-Saqqaf, managing editor of the Yemen Times, told CNN that Ali was identified by a mark on his leg, which was blown off in the blast and found nearby.

Nice... It's good to know that the CIA isn't pissing around anymore.

Heh.. figured I'd get nailed by the repost police, but I did a search for CIA that came up zero. Besides, I didn't look at the news today.
