The UAE's defense ministry denied on Tuesday a statement by the Saudi-backed Yemeni government that the Gulf country was running "secret prisons" in the eastern Yemeni province of Hadramout.
The Yemeni government accused the United Arab Emirates on Monday of running a secret prison at an airbase near the south Yemeni port city of Mukalla, fueling tensions in a row between the two Gulf oil states.
