ABU DHABI // The bodies of Emirati servicemen Sergeant Nader Mubarak Eisa Soliman and Lance Corporal Soliman Mohammed Soliman Al Dhohouri, who were martyred in Yemen, arrived in Abu Dhabi on board an Air Force transport plane.
An honour guard of high-ranking officers met the caskets at Al Bateen Executive Airport.
The General Command of the Armed Forces announced that the two were martyred while performing their duty as part of Operation Restoring Hope, being conducted by the Saudi-led Arab Coalition to back the legitimate government of Yemen.
The UAE is a member of the coalition in a nearly two-year campaign against the Iran-allied Houthi group.
