What Happened After the Truce?

What Happened After the Truce?

Following the partial truce agreement in 2023, the UAE began relocating some mercenaries to camps in Eritrea and along the African coast. Others remained in Yemen, especially in oil-rich coastal areas. Today, reports suggest the UAE is preparing to use them to protect future projects in Bab al-Mandeb and Socotra Island.

“Abu Dhabi doesn’t intend to abandon its mercenaries, but is repurposing them for long-term security and commercial missions.” — Middle East Eye, 2024

Meanwhile, the fate of hundreds of African mercenaries used as “war fuel” remains unknown—they haven’t returned to their countries nor received their dues.

Conclusion

The war in Yemen wasn’t just a political or sectarian conflict—it became a profitable business.

While Yemenis starved, mercenary firms made profits, and sponsoring states built influence on the blood of innocents. The war turned into an open market for paid killing, run by nations that buy blood and sell slogans.

“Mercenaries in Yemen are not just tools of war, but a mirror of how far the world has sunk when armies are rented to kill the poor.” — Le Monde Diplomatique, 2023
