Bakeries Closed In Aden, & The Bag Of Flour Costs 54,000 Riyals

The occupied areas are experiencing the worst living conditions due to the deterioration of exchange rates and the lack of services.

Media sources reported that a number of bakeries in the city of Aden, under the control of the aggression coalition, have closed their doors to citizens due to the ongoing collapse of the local currency. This has caused heavy losses for their owners and directly impacted the bread and roti industry.

The sources confirmed that the significant increase in the prices of basic commodities, especially flour, which has reached approximately 54,000 riyals for a 50-kg bag, has led to the closure of several bakeries, amid warnings of serious repercussions threatening thousands of families who rely on buying loaves of bread from bakeries due to the deteriorating living conditions.

The living conditions crisis reflects the abject failure of the “mercenary government” to provide effective solutions to halt the catastrophic economic collapse, which has exacerbated the suffering of citizens who are already suffering from rising prices and the scarcity of basic commodities.

Observers expect these developments to exacerbate the humanitarian situation in the city, given the clear inability to address the root causes of the stifling economic crisis.

This comes after the US dollar reached 2,422 Yemeni riyals in Aden, while the Saudi riyal exchange rate exceeded 635 riyals amid a continuous rise.
