Yemen, officially the Republic of Yemen, is a country located in West Asia, occupying the southwestern to southern end of the Arabian Peninsula. It is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the north, the Red Sea to the west, the Gulf of Aden and Arabian Sea to the south, and Oman to the east. The capital and largest city of Yemen is Sana'a. Yemen is divided into twenty governorates (muhafazah) and the Capital district. The governorates are subdivided into 333 districts (muderiah), which are subdivided into 2,210 sub-districts, and then into 38,284 villages (as of 2001).[citation needed]

On 28 March 2015, a no-fly zone was imposed over the country by the Royal Saudi Air Force as part of the Saudi-led intervention in the Yemeni civil war.[1] The blockade was lifted in November 2015 and reinstated in February 2016.[2] The blockade was lifted in November 2017.[3][4] Flights were cancelled once again, for four days (28-31 January 2018), but resumed on 1 February 2018.[5][6]
