Houthis Admit to Distributing Contaminated Fuel in Controlled Areas

Houthi militia has acknowledged the introduction of contaminated fuel into areas under their control in Yemen. Reports indicate that large quantities of substandard oil, allegedly smuggled from Iran, have been distributed across local markets.
This has raised serious concerns among residents and drivers, who have reported significant damage to vehicles and machinery due to the poor quality of the fuel.
The contaminated fuel has been linked to mechanical failures, traffic accidents, and disruptions in daily activities.
Experts suggest that the Houthis may have resorted to stockpiling and distributing this fuel as a strategic response to sanctions and restrictions on petroleum imports through the port of Hodeidah.
This development highlights the ongoing challenges faced by civilians in Houthi-controlled regions, where access to reliable resources remains limited.
The situation underscores the broader impact of the conflict on Yemen's infrastructure and economy, as residents continue to grapple with the consequences of substandard supplies.
