Yemen: British Troops Enter Hadhramaut
Local sources in the Hadhramaut Governorate, eastern Yemen, reported that they observed presence of British Special Forces in the Al-Sheen farms in Ghayl Bawazir town.
The British forces have entered the area with the support of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) forces and they intended to establish a military base in the Al-Sheen farms, but they faced opposition from the owners of the farms.
Since the beginning of the Yemen war, no accurate information or details have been released about the presence of British troops in the war-torn country.
It seems that Britain does not have a permanent and transparent military presence in Yemen; so, most of the British forces’ movements in Yemen have been temporary or concentrated in the form of Combined Task Force 153 in Yemen’s territorial waters.
British security and intelligence forces are also present at their temporary embassy in the city of Aden and they play an important role in security issues in southern regions of the Arab country.
