Скачать или смотреть Aden in Crisis | Historic News Footage of Cold War Conflict in Yemen (1962)

In the early 1960s, Yemen was thrown into turmoil when the Imam was deposed and Abdullah as-Sallal proclaimed a republic. The Imam turned to Saudi Arabia and Jordan for support, while Egypt backed the new regime. The unrest spilled over into Aden, where it strengthened opposition to Britain’s plan to merge the colony with the Federation, highlighting the region’s importance to British oil interests.

Reporting from Aden and Yemen, Reginald Bosanquet investigated the worsening crisis as part of the 'Roving Reports' series.
