The purchased energy companies in Aden stopped operating their stations as of Thursday dawn, due to debts owed by the pro-aggression government estimated at about 40 million dollars, the General Electricity Corporation in Aden said.
Citizens in Aden and the rest of the Yemeni areas under Saudi-Emirati occupation complain of a complete collapse of infrastructure services like electricity and water. A frightening deterioration of the economic situation and the exacerbation of famine in southern governorates is due to the rise in commodity prices resulting from the collapse of the Yemeni riyal price in those areas.
Electricity comes as the biggest crisis experienced by the residents of the southern governorates with a hot climate, where the electricity generation crisis has been exacerbated for years, especially in Aden.
According to the statement of the Aden Electricity Company, the city of Aden needs to generate 502 megawatts, while government electricity and private electricity generation companies cannot provide less than 40% of the city’s electricity needs.
The electricity crisis is one of the crises that haunt the citizens in the occupied governorates, in addition to the crises of insecurity and bloody conflicts between the armed factions of the coalition. In addition, there is a rise of murders, assassinations, rape, kidnapping, rugs, theft, water cuts for long periods, the deterioration of the health situation and the uneven interruption of the salaries of government employees.
In light of the increasing corruption scandals practiced by the pro-aggression government, there is a crazy rise in the prices of food and basic commodities and the continuous collapse of the local currency.
