UAE Armed Forces second batch to leave for Yemen

The second batch of UAE Armed Forces soldiers are preparing to perform their new duties in Yemen as part of the Saudi-led Arab coalition. According to national news agency WAM, the rotation of soldiers will see the first batch replaced by another, as part of Operation Restoring Hope. This comes after the first contingent achieved several victories, including the liberation of the historical city of Marib and Marib Dam, which was rebuilt by the first president of the UAE, late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
