September 2021. A scorching wind sweeps through the Hadhramaut Valley, in the East of Yemen. The air is dry, the heat stifling. The sun shines high in the sky, like a furnace above these wild lands. Around, the desert stretches as far as the eye can see. A few brown rock ridges cut through the horizon. And the arid, cracked, sandy ground gives the region an appearance of a fiery moon.
