Questions arise over border deposit funds
Media outlets and social media platforms circulated a shocking image of the Al-Wadiah border crossing between Yemen and Saudi Arabia, showing that travelers suffer from the lack of waiting facilities, rest areas, or restrooms, despite tens of thousands passing through monthly. This has sparked widespread controversy over the mismanagement of illegal revenues collected from the market, truck inspections, taxes, and union fees, which are estimated to amount to millions of riyals daily. Yet, none of these revenues have been deposited into the state’s accounts for years. Activists have called for reforming the situation and improving the conditions for travelers, highlighting concerns about corruption and the unutilized resources that are not being legally managed.
