Yemen

verified-icon
Fortunate Arabia
Yemen is a country in the southern Arabian Peninsula, bordered by Saudi Arabia and Oman. Known for its ancient history and stunning architecture, such as the old city of Sana'a and the Hadhramaut valley, Yemen was once part of powerful kingdoms like Saba (Sheba). Today, it faces severe humanitarian and political crises due to ongoing civil war, economic collapse, and famine. Despite its struggles, Yemen remains culturally rich, with deep-rooted traditions in poetry, coffee cultivation, and Islamic heritage. #MiddleEast #Yemen #MoofLife_Moment #MoofLife #MomentsOfLife
