Overview

"The Central Security Organization (Arabic: قوات الأمن المركزي‎) is a paramilitary force in Yemen under the control of the Minister of the Interior. It was established in 1980. It is known today as SSF (Special Security Forces) Yemen, or Yemen SSF after a Presidential Decree on February 21, 2013. Although nominally part of the Interior Ministry, the CSO under Yahya was largely autonomous, and is composed of two main parts; the Central Security Forces (CSF) and the Counter-Terrorism Unit (CTU). The CSF are paramilitary police that secure official buildings and infrastructure, as well as managing the dense network of security checkpoints on Yemen's highways. The CSF is also beginning to undertake covert countersurveillance at likely terrorist targets."

The flag

There seems to have been a recent change, as a new flag has appeared, as seen on a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QL624VwYJg (video now restricted, screen capture available here). The flag is also posted on Wikipedia (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Security_Forces_(Yemen)).

The new flag features the new emblem in the middle over the same dark blue horizontal background.
