Yemenis living under Houthi rule were hopeful that the oil crisis created by the Iran-backed militias would come to an end with the legitimate government allowing oil shipments to arrive at Hodeidah, but instead the Houthis have hiked oil prices in their territories.
The Houthis are selling a 20-liter can of gasoline for 12,600 Yemeni rials. Before the crisis, the same amount of fuel ran at 9,900 Yemeni rials.
