Aden residents are witnessing widespread anger and protests over frequent power outages for long periods of up to 14 hours in some neighborhoods, coinciding with high temperatures and humidity.

Angry protesters in Mansoura District resumed blocking roads in the evening, after they had been blocked in the morning, to protest the deterioration of electricity services.

Citizens suffer from power outages for long periods, while emergency diesel fuel shipments that were introduced to some generating stations did not significantly improve electricity performance.

The protesters hold the government responsible for the deterioration of electricity services, for not fulfilling its responsibilities in providing sufficient fuel for power generation stations.

The protesters demanded radical solutions to the electricity crisis, including maintaining power plants, saving fuel, combating corruption, and researching new alternatives to power generation.

Aden has been suffering from a power outage crisis for years, and government efforts have not succeeded in resolving this crisis so far, which negatively affects all aspects of life in the city.

While strenuous efforts are being made by the Aden Electricity Administration to address the crisis, expectations indicate a gradual improvement in service tomorrow, with some generating stations returning to work and loads decreasing.
