Israeli tourists provoke Yemeni people by posting their pictures from Socotra

SOCOTRA, May 19 (YPA) – The  United Arab Emirates (UAE) occupation  has continued to transport  tourists to the Socotra island archipelago, on Emirati visas in flagrant violation of Yemeni sovereignty, international laws and customs.

Local sources said that hundreds of foreign tourists have entered Socotra over the past few days on visas granted to them by Abu Dhabi and transported by plane to  Socotra airport.

The sources accused Hadi’s government of complicity as a result of its silence on UAE practices and its insistence on establishing its occupation of Socotra Island.

Activists on the social platforms circulated new pictures of foreign tourists.  Most of the tourists are   Israelis, according to the activists.

They called on the international community and the Security Council to take a serious and explicit stand in stopping UAE violations, particularly as the Hadi government fails to take clear steps towards the UAE occupation on Socotra Island.
