Gaza Bakeries Halted by Flour Shortage
The Gaza Strip is facing a severe flour supply crisis, with 10 out of 17 bakeries ceasing operations due to a shortage of commercial flour. This situation is worsened by Israeli restrictions on the entry of goods into the territory. The President of Gaza’s Bakers’ Owners Association warned that additional bakeries could shut down if new supplies do not arrive in the coming period, as crossings into Gaza remain closed, further exacerbating the humanitarian and economic crisis. This comes amid the World Food Programme reducing aid to half a million people due to funding shortages, rising wheat prices, and ongoing Israeli escalation, which has caused widespread damage and significant human and material losses.
