Gaza faces deepening bread crisis as Israeli restrictions bite

Six months into a US-brokered ceasefire, severe shortages of flour, fuel and cash are driving a deepening bread crisis across Gaza. The Gaza Bakery Owners Association says production now meets only 50 percent of the population's needs, forcing families to queue for hours at bakeries and markets. Restrictions at crossings, a 30 percent cut in bread production, and reduced subsidies from the World Food Programme have created a major supply gap, whilst Israel's limits on replacing old currency have left residents unable to pay for bread even when they reach the front of the queue.
