Activists from the occupied city of Aden, southern Yemen, have on Tuesday called for civil disobedience in the provinces under control of the Saudi-led coalition, in protest against the further deterioration of Yemen’s currency.
The activists called on all citizens to escalate popular protests, after the price of the dollar exceeded one thousand Yemeni riyals per dollar in the southern provinces and the price of foodstuffs rose to record levels.
The activists accused Hadi’s government and the Saudi-led coalition of taking destructive economic policies which have led to the collapse of the value of the riyal and caused fatal damage to the lives of millions of Yemenis.
The Saudi-led Hadi puppet government has continued to print currency illegally, often without backing of the Central Bank, leading to mass inflation.
