Yemeni students take exams in undershirts due to power outage

CAIRO - 11 May 2017: Students of Dhyaa school in the Yemeni city of Aden took their exams in undershirts instead of their regular uniform due to the scorching temperature caused by an electricity outage in the temporary capital of the Yemeni legitimate government.

One of the school teachers shared photos of the exam room to show solidarity with the students who take their exams under inhumane circumstances. He also called on President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi to interfere and solve the problem of the persistent power cuts in the province.

With temperatures reaching up to 34° C, Aden suffers from a serious problem of power outages. Residents of the southern port city live in darkness, with the absence of any cooling method during the summer heat.
