💨 Abstract
Air traffic at Yemen's Aden airport was halted due to escalating tensions between Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Saudi Arabia imposed new flight restrictions on the UAE, which Yemen's transport minister, aligned with UAE-backed separatists, defied by shutting down air traffic. This move is part of a broader crisis in Yemen, exposing a deep rift between the two Gulf powers. Saudi Arabia accused the UAE of pushing separatists towards its borders, leading the UAE to withdraw its forces from Yemen.
