Send-off ceremony for S. Korean troops in UAE

A member of the 25th contingent of the Akh unit, a South Korean unit stationed in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), bids farewell to his wife and children during a departure ceremony at a military compound in Incheon, west of Seoul, on Nov. 4, 2025. The first contingent of South Korean troops was deployed in the Mideast nation in January 2011 with the mission to train the UAE's special forces and conduct combined exercises. The word "Akh" means brother in Arabic. (Yonhap)
