## Description

Despite its airfield status, Al Anad is best understood as a military installation rather than a freight point: located about 60 km north of Aden in Lahij governorate, the base has been a contested front line in Yemen's war for years. No scheduled passenger or civilian cargo flights operate here; the site serves military and security functions. For forwarders it therefore carries no standalone cargo role — air freight for the area is handled through Aden. Heavy and routine imports move via the Port of Aden and onward road links into the interior.
