Emirati ship carrying huge containers arrive at Yemen’s Socotra Island

SOCOTRA, Feb. 08 (YPA) – Informed sources at the port of Socotra Island, southern Yemen, said that an Emirati ship unloaded a number of containers on Monday morning under the protection of the UAE-backed Southern Transitional council (STC) forces.

The sources added that the STC forces have strengthened their military presence in the port, accompanied by Emirati officers, and are working to bring in huge containers, without knowing what these containers contain.

On June 19, 2020, the STC took control of the city of Hadibu, the capital of Socotra, under the deliberate complicity of Saudi Arabia and the “Hadi government”.
