(COMBO) This combination of pictures taken during February 2021 in the Yemeni Island of Socotra, a site of global importance for biodiversity conservation, located in the northwestern Indian Ocean some 350 kilometres south of the Arabian Peninsula, shows (L to R) a boat moored off Shoab beach on February 11, Desert rose (Adenium socotranum) plants growing on Di-Hamri mountain on February 13, a fresh water spring on the mountain of Homhil on February 13, and dolphins swimming in the water off Shoab beach on February 11. - With its lush landscape, distinctive trees, unique animals and turquoise waters home to dolphins, Yemen is hoping its Socotra archipelago will become a dream destination despite the country's nightmarish conflict. The four islands and two rocky islets home to some 50,000 people have remained relatively untouched by the war that has devastated the mainland, with adventurous travelers showing a growing interest in visiting.
