Yemeni officials loyal to former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, say Saudi Arabia has for the first time deployed troops to the southwestern port city of Aden, where Riyadh and its ally, the United Arab Emirates, are vying for a foothold.<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

\n\tThe officials, who were speaking on condition of anonymity, said the Saudi forces had been stationed at Aden’s presidential palace, port and airport, presstv.ir reported.<\/p>\n

\n\tThey are the first special Saudi forces in Aden since 2015, when the Arab monarchy launched a military campaign against Yemen in an attempt to eliminate the country\u2019s Houthi Ansarullah movement and reinstall Riyadh-friendly Hadi.<\/p>\n

\n\tSaudi Arabia receives backing in the war from a number of its client states, including the UAE. There have, however, been some indications that Saudi Arabia and the UAE disagree on a number of issues over the war on Yemen, among them the control of Aden International Airport.<\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier this year, Aden-based Hadi became suspicious of Abu Dhabi\u2019s role in Yemen and accused it of acting “like an occupation power.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHe also sacked two of his pro-Emirati officials who allegedly supported the secession of southern Yemen. The move sparked mass protests in the south and fueled calls for separation.<\/p>\n

\n\tSaudi Arabia has come under international criticism over mounting civilian casualties in Yemen and the massive destruction.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tIt has also achieved neither of the objectives despite spending billions of dollars on the war and enlisting the cooperation of dozens of its vassal states as well as Western countries.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Saudi-led bombing campaign, which has been accompanied by a naval and aerial blockade on Yemen, has so far killed over 12,000 people in the impoverished state, left 70 percent of the country\u2019s 27 million population in desperate need of humanitarian aid, and caused the worst cholera outbreak in the world.<\/p>\n

\n\t‘Long history of destructive intervention’<\/p>\n

\n\tWith the Yemen war at a stalemate, Saudi Arabia and the UAE are competing for influence in the areas which their mercenaries control.<\/p>\n

\n\tSaudi Arabia has a long history of destructive intervention in Yemen, treating the country \u201cas both threat and target,\u201d according to political analyst Andrew Hammond.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe kingdom\u2019s stance on Yemen revolves around splitting political entities, spreading the radical Salafi ideology, and securing a passage to Bab-el-Mandab and the Arabian Sea, thus bypassing the Straits of Hormuz.<\/p>\n

\n\tSaudi Arabia’s strategy has been funding Yemen\u2019s administrations as well as tribal leaders to secure support for its policies and prevent the emergence of a non-tribal, non-sectarian culture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
