Saudi-UAE Tensions Escalate in Yemen, OPEC Meeting at Risk
Update: 2025-12-30
Description
Tensions escalate between Saudi Arabia and the UAE over Yemen, as Saudi-led coalition launches airstrike on Mukalla, targeting UAE-backed separatists. UAE orders forces to pull out for safety. This flare-up stems from December when UAE-supported forces seized big areas in southern Yemen, putting the two allies on opposite sides of the civil war. Reactions pour in, with UAE denying undermining Saudi security and Saudi forces striking twice. Experts say this friction is the worst in years, exposing deep divides on oil quotas and influence. High-level talks have dragged on without fixing things on the ground. Meanwhile, they gear up for a virtual OPEC plus meeting on Sunday, where any discord could hurt the Gulfs stability. Tensions also spill into Sudan, with accusations flying over support in that civil war. Allies clash, but usually mend fences. Checkout Solipillow.com
