ADEN (Debriefer)--A mass demonstration was held in Yemen's interim capital Aden on Friday to protest against the deterioration of the national economy, security and basic services.
Demonstrators carried placards demanding to improve living conditions and address healthcare and sanitation problems and power outages.
They stressed the importance of finding quick solutions to the depreciation of the national currency and giving the salaries of the public servants and the security and military units regularly.
The organising committee urged in a statement to integrate the security units and activate the role of the judiciary and prosecution in order to put an end to the security deterioration.
The worsening situation in the city has sparked calls by youth initiatives and civil society organisations to take to the streets to protest corruption of the government.
Today's demonstration came amid divisions within the government which includes the UAE-backed southern transitional council.
