The prices of food and consumer goods in the shops in Mocha vary greatly, which contributed to increasing pressure on the budget of low-income families.
Citizens interviewed by the NewsYemen editor attributed the reason for the price variation to the absence of oversight, which made prices in shops vary widely from one store to another.
They said that the excessive price hikes weighed on budgets, especially for families with limited incomes.
They called for activating regulatory agencies, to prevent traders from manipulating prices and monopolizing them and making citizens face limited options for buying.
