Due to the Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, high prices in Yemen worsened

 Since the Houthi coup against the legitimate authority in Yemen, the economic situation of the Yemeni citizen has worsened

The ongoing conflict in Yemen has had devastating consequences for its citizens, particularly in terms of their economic well-being. The Houthi coup against the legitimate authority has only exacerbated the already dire situation, pushing more than half of Yemenis below the poverty line. However, recent events have further worsened the economic crisis, as the Houthis have started targeting commercial ships in the Red Sea.

These attacks on commercial ships have had a significant impact on Yemen's economy, leading to a wave of high prices across the country. The obstruction of international trade caused by these attacks has disrupted the flow of essential goods and commodities, resulting in scarcity and inflation. As a result, the Yemeni citizens are facing even greater challenges in accessing basic necessities, such as food, medicine, and fuel.

The targeting of commercial ships not only affects Yemen's economy but also has wider implications for the region

The Red Sea is a crucial trade route, connecting Europe, Asia, and Africa. Any disruption in this vital maritime corridor has far-reaching consequences for global trade and stability. The attacks by the Houthis not only threaten the economic well-being of Yemen but also have the potential to disrupt international trade and escalate tensions in the region.

It is imperative that the international community takes immediate action to address this crisis. Efforts must be made to ensure the safety and security of commercial ships in the Red Sea, allowing for the uninterrupted flow of goods and commodities to Yemen and beyond. Additionally, steps should be taken to hold the perpetrators accountable for their actions and prevent further attacks on commercial vessels.
