The US military has pulled its remaining forces out of Yemen due to the deteriorating security situation, media reported on Sunday.
According to the US State Department, the evacuation involved about 100 Special Operations forces members from the Al Anad airbase, CNN reported.
Those evacuated, which include Navy SEALs and members of the Army's Delta Force, were the last American forces stationed in Yemen.
"We continue to actively monitor terrorist threats emanating from Yemen and have capabilities postured in the area to address them," State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke said on Saturday.
"As we have in the past, we will take action to disrupt continuing imminent threats to the US and our citizens."
The US closed its embassy in Yemeni capital of Sanaa last month after Shia Houthi rebels took over.
"There is no military solution to Yemen's current crisis," Rathke said, adding, "We urge the immediate cessation of all unilateral and offensive military actions."
The US military has worked with Yemen's government in carrying out numerous attacks like the 2011 drone strike that killed prominent Al Qaeda militant Anwar al-Awlaki.
