Yemeni citizens condemned the attempts of the United Arab Emirates to occupy the archipelago of Socotra, denouncing the tampering with its contents and looting its wealth.

Citizens attributed the UAE’s efforts to control the archipelago as a product of the archipelago’s treasures and wealth, as well as its excellent climate. In addition to its proximity to Bab al-Mandab as a strategic location, considered the UAE is an operational tool for Britain and America.

On the UAE’s efforts to push its allies from the islanders to demand a referendum to join the UAE, citizens said that the island is Yemeni island since ancient times, because it is linked to the sovereignty of the state.

The citizens called on the people of the island to protect their lands, their environmental and historical resources from the invaders, and all Yemenis will be with them.
