Last week the city witnessed similar protests denouncing the deteriorating living conditions, the collapse of the local currency, and lack of basic services.

At the time Protesters raised slogans calling on Hadi government forces and the Saudi-led coalition to quickly intervene and take practical measures to operate vital ports, lift the ban on oil exports, and find solutions to control the collapse of the riyal against the dollar.

Saudi media reported on the economic situation in yemen in a joint statement on September 16th, calling on President Hadi to return to Aden and take all necessary steps to ensure economic stability.

Yemen has experienced the worst collapse in the value of the riyal in its history since the war started 6 years ago. The Yemeni currency has lost 36% of its value within a year, causing significant shortages in food and basic necessities for most of the population.
