Taiz: In anticipation of Ramadan, the local authority in Taiz province announced a unilateral initiative to keep the al-Shaab Palace Roundabout Road – al-Kamb route open 24 hours a day.

According to Yemen News Agency, Acting Governor of Taiz Ahmed al-Masaw stated that the initiative aligns with directives from national leadership aimed at alleviating citizen suffering on both sides of Taiz city.
