  'Uzlah (Arabic: عزلة, plural 'Uzaal ; Arabic: عزل) is the name given to Yemen's regional administrative divisions. The 'uzlah was originally a sub-division of a mikhlaf, another type of administrative division. However, the mikhleef system is no longer used by the government so it is now an administrative sub-division of a district.
  
  ## Etymology
  
  In Arabic, the word 'uzlah means remoteness or loneliness.
