The 1934 Anglo-Yemeni Treaty of Friendship and Mutual Cooperation defers final settlement of the question, leaving the border dispute unresolved.

The border between the Aden Protectorate and Yemen had originally been established during 1902-1904.

Over the past several years, Yemen has raised a claim to nine regions in the border area.

Yahya had recovered al-Hudaydah and other ports from Asir (1925) but had been evicted from the Aden Protectorate in 1928.

Emboldened by an Anglo-Indian-Yemeni treaty of February 11, 1934, signed on the same day that the Saudi and British governments conclude a treaty of friendship for 40 years between the two countries, Yajyao precipitates war with Saudi Arabia.

After summary defeat, he receives a generous treaty (May 1934).
