ANDRIA HALL, CNN ANCHOR: And now to the other story from the Middle East we're following for you: important developments in Yemen. The last four bodies of the American sailors killed aboard the USS Cole will be sent home today. That will follow a memorial service in Aden. CNN's Matthew Chance joins us by telephone now, live from Aden with the latest -- Matthew.</s>MATTHEW CHANCE, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Thanks, Andria. Well, it has been a confirmed to us in the last 24 hours that the U.S. military authorities here, using Navy divers, have recovered the remains of all the U.S. sailors that were killed in the attack on the USS Cole. Now, the caskets containing the remains of the last four sailors recovered will be flown out of Aden on board a U.S. military aircraft in about three or four hours from now. They'll be taken to the U.S. Air Force Base in Dover, Delaware, for final identification. On the USS Cole itself, now that those final remains have been recovered, U.S. officials say work is getting fully underway to repair the ship, the area around the blast, to make it at least seaworthy enough to be moved first into deeper waters and then onto a privately owned salvage vessel, the Blue Marlin, which has been commissioned by the U.S. Navy to carry the USS Cole back to the United States. In the meantime, the investigation is continuing here into who was responsible for the blast. Yemeni authorities say large numbers of people are being detained for questioning over the incidents. But we're told there have been no arrests made so far. And U.S. investigators here on the ground say it's still far too early for any final conclusions to be drawn. Andria, back to you.</s>HALL: Matthew, thank you. Meanwhile, back in the United States, the Senate investigation into that attack on the USS Cole is moving behind closed doors today. The former U.S. military commander in the Persian Gulf region, General Anthony Zinni, testified yesterday. He told the Senate Armed Services Committee that he takes full responsibility for the decision to refuel Navy ships in Yemen. He says it was the best option available.
