πΎπͺ Aden, Yemen
do not plan casually
No totality here. The moon's umbra misses Aden:
the city sees a deep partial eclipse (magnitude 0.958), maximum at 10:51:19 UT.
A partial β even a 96% one β is nothing like totality, and partial phases are never safe
to watch without ISO-certified filters.
Read this first. Yemen is an active conflict zone. Governments advise against all travel; there is no safe, insurable, plannable eclipse trip here. The eclipse itself is partial in Aden β totality never touches the city.

Verdict: Correction over earlier path lists: the umbra misses Aden β the city sees a deep partial (magnitude 0.958), not totality. With advise-against-all-travel advisories on top, nothing here supports an eclipse trip.
