This conflict arose from the First Emirates-Yemen War of 1968-1969. Four months of fighting led to a status quo and much greater tension between both countries. Tensions began to arise in the 1970s, mainly due to the harboring of Islamic extremists in South Yemen. Informal talks and conferences held in 1973 resulted in no action by Yemen to fix the situation and a general condemnation of their government in the Emirates. So, in December 12, 1973 war was declared. By then both nations had rearmed and were preparing for war, but no action was taken. In May, 1974 intelligence from the Emirates military and AMTACT led to the conclusion of an imminent Yemeni invasion within the coming months. So, on the 13th of July Emirates tanks and armored vehicles rolled into South Yemen.
