PetroMasila power plant goes out of service in Aden

ADEN, Nov. 05 (YPA) – The PetroMasila power plant, which runs on crude oil, has gone out of service, on Tuesday, due to a fuel shortage, amid widespread local anger in Aden city, local sources confirmed.

The sources reported that the increase in the hours of power outages for citizens has increased for long periods amid popular demands for the coalition government to put an end to the collapse of public services.

Government spending on electricity in Aden represents 60% of its spending on the sector in general in all southern governorates.
