UAE replaces troops in Yemen as crucial Taiz battle looms
|
The UAE has replaced its troops in Yemen as the Arab coalition forces and their national allies brace for the final battle to seize Taiz.
The decision is part of redeployment of troops in the conflict-battered Arab country, where the UAE, Saudi Arabia and other coalition members are fighting to end an Iranian-backed coup and restore legitimacy to Yemen.
The Armed Forces General Command said a first batch of UAE soldiers serving in Yemen would return home shortly as it will be replaced by troops being sent there.
“The batch which will return home will be replaced by a second batch which will perform its mission in Yemen,” it said in a statement.
It said the replacement came after the first batch achieved major victories in Yemen and in liberating Marib Dam, which was reconstructed by late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan as part of the UAE’s continuous support for the Yemeni people.
