đź’¨ Abstract
Saudi Arabia's ambassador to Yemen reported that Aidarus Al-Zubaidi, leader of the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC), denied landing permission for a Saudi delegation's plane in Aden. This incident highlights the growing tension between Saudi Arabia and the UAE in Yemen. The STC accused Saudi Arabia of imposing an air blockade, while Saudi Arabia sought to resolve the escalation. The Aden airport is crucial for regions outside Houthi control.
