Gazans walk miles for bread and flour amid war shortages

New Indian Express  

Essential goods like water, fresh produce and medicines are also scarce. Nothing in markets "I walked about eight kilometres to get bread," Hatem Kullab, a displaced Palestinian living in a neighbourhood of makeshift tents, told AFP. "To get a loaf of bread you need a whole day of eight to 10 hours," said the brother of one of the women killed, describing his sister's ordeal as she tried to get bread to feed 10 family members. "The suffering that my sister went through is suffered by all the Palestinian people," Jameel Fayyad told AFP, criticising what he described as poor management of the bakeries. Palestinians from across the Gaza Strip told AFP journalists that it is extremely difficult to find the 50-kilogram bags of flour that would last them several weeks before the war.
