- Reports in 1936 that the Treaty of Friendship (1926) between Italy and Yemen has been extended until November 1937.
- Details of negotiations for the renewal of the aforementioned treaty and reports of its conclusion on 4 September 1937.
- Claims made in the British press that Italy's supply of arms to Yemen contravenes certain clauses in the Anglo-Italian Agreement.
- Rumours of renewed French claims to Sheikh Said [Ra’s Shaykh Sa‘īd].
- The Foreign Office's response to unconfirmed reports of Italian military presence in Yemeni territory in early 1939, including reports of the Island of Jebel Zukur in the Red Sea (also spelled Djebel Zukur in the file) [Jazīrat Jabal Zuqar] having been occupied by Italian troops, and reports of Italian intentions to mount forty-three heavy guns at Sheikh Said.
