The article discusses the impact of war and economic divisions in Yemen on households' livelihoods, focusing on how purchasing power is eroded and how rising food and service prices affect daily life. It explains that salaries vary between government-held areas and those controlled by the Houthis, with employees facing severe financial pressures, whether due to soaring costs of basic commodities or irregular incomes. The article also addresses how increases in transportation and energy costs related to ongoing conflicts lead to higher import expenses, directly influencing food prices, which constitute a significant part of household budgets.
