Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh has said the security forces have arrested a group of alleged Islamist militants linked to Israeli intelligence.
Mr Saleh did not say what evidence had been found to show the group's links with Israel, a regional enemy of Yemen.
The arrests were connected with an attack on the US embassy in Sanaa last month which killed at least 18 people, official sources were quoted saying. Israel's foreign ministry has rejected the accusation as "totally ridiculous".
"A terrorist cell was arrested and will be referred to the judicial authorities for its links with the Israeli intelligence services," Mr Saleh told a gathering at al-Mukalla University in Hadramawt province. "Details of the trial will be announced later. You will hear about what goes on in the proceedings," he added.
The 17 September attack was the second to target the US embassy since April. Militants detonated car bombs before firing rockets at the heavily fortified building. Mr Saleh did not identify the suspects, but official sources were quoted saying it was same cell - led by a militant called Abu al-Ghaith al-Yamani - whose arrest was announced a week after the attack.
An Israeli foreign ministry spokesman said the Yemeni president's statement was without foundation.
"To believe that Israel would create Islamist cells in Yemen is really far-fetched. This is yet another victory for the proponents of conspiracy theories," Igal Palmor said in remarks reported by AFP

Will the Yemenis show with Evidence , the Traitors who worked with the Mossad ? Same thing Happened in Algeria and also in Sidon Lebanon (murder of 2 brothers from Jihad in 2006) I dont think they have the Guts to show it and within days , the story will be forgotten .
in Sidon Lebanon , they showed on ANB a few proofs but they did not do much and the story was closed . NO GUTS to expose the criminals
It,s always American targets , Liberty was the begining and NYT was not the last.
''The 17 September attack was the second to target the US embassy since April. Militants detonated car bombs before firing rockets at the heavily fortified building''
Im still waiting for syria to show How Mr Mughnia was killed in the Heart of Damascus still Nothing .
Mr Siniora did mention the crimes of the Mossad in sidon june 2006 and said he will expose it at the UN , so far nothing happened .
An Algerian Policeman and another civilian were found working for the Mossad , there was one article in the press and it never made it to CNN or the BBC . do governments get bribed to stop exposing the Mossad , im beginning to believe it. cowards .
Mossad was found stealing Art from the Tassili and timgad in the South of Algeria and selling it in the black market , it was announced on the Algerian channel , again Nothing in the so called "important credible sources" im beginning to understand the power of the Mossad .
I meant operation of Khaled Meshea'l poisoning that was revelead in Jordan
Also the 2 assassinators of US deplomat were arrested by simple local police with motorcycle in Egypt more than 50 years ago
Those are dfferent times , Mossad can infiltrate some Arab official systems and governments keep mouth shut for reasons or secret deals we don,t know
