Sana'a, NewsYemen, Jalal Muhammad:

Sanaa governorate, which is under the control of the terrorist Houthi militia, is witnessing a new stifling crisis in domestic gas, coinciding with a rise in its price on the black market by an amount of up to 15,500.

The leaders of the terrorist Houthi militias in Sanaa insist on continuing the policy of distributing household gas through district leader because of its political benefit, as the distribution of household gas can be used as a means to exert pressure on citizens through the leader, with regard to the mobilization of fighters to the militia fronts.

The Erlo militias are betting through district leaderAgal where they obtain gas, with donations and mobilizations, which is confirmed by recent measures in the province.

Al-Hajj Zayed Al-Suraihi confirmed that 200 gas cylinders are being disbursed per week, while 600 are being disbursed to the neighborhood workers who support the militias in the crowd.

And local sources reported that this duplication of sales and distribution came under the directives of the leader Ahmed Hamed, impersonating the director of the presidential office, who directed the distribution of gas at a lower price and larger quantities to the directorates that offer (sacrifices and mujahideen), and to restrict the directorates and the wise men who describe them as fascists, treacherous and uncooperative.

In the context, the bus driver, Abdul Razzaq Al-Raimi, complained to NewsYemen about the stoppage of gas pumping to car stations, a month ago, while the gas cylinder is sold on the black market for 15,500 riyals, which he has to buy to be able to feed his family. He described this as Houthi extortion for citizens.

For her part, one of the women, who is the head of a family of six people who lost the breadwinner due to his illness and his inability to work, says that she is experiencing difficulty in living and she is looking for food for her children and finds little,” noting that she and others resorted to using firewood, due to the difficulty of obtaining food.  Gas cylinders and their high price on the black market.

She stressed that she is keen to go out almost daily to collect cartons and firewood as fuel because of the delay in her share of gas, which she only gets every 45 days, as well as her inability to buy domestic gas from the black market.
