According to Reuters, citing IOM officials and Yemeni government sources, 80,000 of Taiz's approximately 600,000 residents fled the city after the latest fighting broke out. The living conditions of local residents have recently seriously deteriorated, basic supplies and humanitarian aid have been inaccessible, and prices have soared. Resident Nashwan Saad said that the price of a bag of wheat has risen by about 40%, and some families are starting to starve. Resident Rafat Wafi told Saudi Arabia's “Arab News” daily that due to dwindling stocks, the local government has stopped selling flour directly to residents, only allowing it to be purchased at bakeries, and has implemented a rationing system in disguise. Furthermore, the price of a 20-liter barrel of gasoline rose to 150,000 riyals, five times the previous one; the price of a liter of bottled water reached 6,000 riyals, 12 times the original price.
