The protesters pointed out that corruption of the government and its mishandling of the basic services in the city.

Taiz has been living in a tragic situation for the past 8 years due to the lack of basic services and the security anarchy, as the residents of the governorate have become dependent on solar energy and commercial electricity, whose price has reached 1,000 riyals per kilo, which has doubled the suffering of citizens.
