A Yemeni man goes shopping in a market in the old City of Sanaa, Yemen, on May 23, 2018. Many people in Yemen receive this Ramadan amid despair and harsh living conditions as a result of the three-year-long military conflict. According to Yemeni economists and analysts, the food prices sharply increased between 35 percent and 100 percent in the recent months of 2018, compared with the period before the Saudi-led military intervention against the Shiite Houthi rebels in 2015.
