Rohin adds his bit of snark on the film:

[ColonelCassad] And more about the Yemeni war. It turns out that the Emirates made a full-length feature film about the war in Yemen.

Well, as the emirates - they wrote out from France the director Pierre Morel (known for the film "Hostage", where the elderly Liam Neeson piled on his daughter's kidnappers), who in the Emirates quickly blinded a teary tale about fagots about how the patrol of the Emirates got into an ambush, and the rest of the Emirate heroically rescued them, overcoming the sinister Houthis, who tried to prevent the rescue of Private Al-Ryan from Abu Dhabi, who somehow got into Yemen, where no one invited him.

Of course, all this is political agitation (what is actually happening with the MRAPs in Yemen, you can easily look at the numerous videos of real hostilities), designed to somehow justify the participation of the UAE in the intervention against Yemen and attempts to seize part of its territory from Yemen. including Socotra Island and Abyan and Hadhramaut provinces. But in the film, of course, they will not tell about it. It is quite understandable that the film will not have much success.
The very polished trailer makes a lot of promises about the ethos of the Emirati military. Were it not for the language, one would think they were American soldiers.
