Gaza hunger crisis: Flour prices hit $20 per kilo as Israeli blockade leaves families scavenging
Gaza’s flour markets reveal the brutal economics of survival under blockade, where a kilogram of flour, globally averaging $1.50, now costs up to $20 amid Israel’s restrictions. With pre-war daily wages at just $18 and unemployment rampant, families ration tiny portions, some stretching a single kilo over days while relying on besieged charity kitchens. Parents speak of impossible choices: paying exorbitant prices or watching children beg for food as malnutrition deaths rise. Widows and vulnerable groups face hardship, often dependent on dwindling aid that rarely reaches them. Israel’s ban on UNRWA, Gaza’s historic lifeline, has compounded the crisis, leaving US-backed alternatives unable to fill the gap. Civilians describe a world where starvation rivals bombs as a mortal threat, with appeals for international intervention growing desperate. The blockade has not just shattered Gaza’s economy but weaponised basic sustenance, reducing survival to hourly calculations.Al Jazeera’s Wilson Dizard reports.
