UAE pulls remaining forces out of Yeman after Saudi strike

From PBS NewsHour.

The United Arab Emirates is pulling its remaining forces out of Yemen after Saudi Arabia attacked an Emirati shipment in a Yemeni port.

Black smoke could be seen in the port city of Mukalla on Tuesday, where Saudi officials say two vessels from the UAE had delivered weapons and vehicles meant for a Yemeni separatist group. It was not clear if there were any casualties.

The strike is an escalation in tensions between Saudi Arabia and the UAE and threatens to reignite the civil war in Yemen.
