Yemen Gas Company has confirmed that Safer has reduced the shares of free provinces of household gas by 40 percent and imposed a price increase of the third since 2019.

The spokesman for the gas company on Me'asar explained to Saba that the reduction of the quotas and the increase in the price had led to a doubling of the domestic gas crisis in the provinces run by the National Rescue Government.

During the past February, the number of gas locomotives carried over from the Safer to the areas managed by the Government of Rescue had reached 1,000 and 63, compared to 1,000 and 183 in February 2021, which was about 120 less.

What the mercenaries' media had addressed about increasing gas quotas for free zones was unfounded.

Me'asar pointed out that Safer company imposed a price dose on a gas cylinder, last February, which was the third since 2019.

After the visit, Safer sold the gas cylinder for RM 3550, plus RM 17.75, an income tax collected at Safer, plus freight to the free zones.

It was reported that there were several additions to the value of the gas cylinder imposed by SAFR, including a city improvement allowance, Bank Marib improvement fee, sand line difference, diesel price difference, and points royalties, eventually reaching the first free zones at 5900 rials.
