Precious wheat spilled out of disembowelled silos, mixing with soot, debris and cement: Beirut's port blast has guttedThe annihilation of the port in Tuesday's explosion has further strained food access for a population that relies on imports for 85 percent of what it eats.
"We were already struggling with the wheat and flour that were available. The mills weren't getting enough or they didn't have fuel to run," Bou Habib said.Even before the explosion, Wooden Bakery's 50 branches were only getting two-thirds of the 70 tonnes of flour they need daily. The day after the blast, hundreds of customers flocked to the Al-Kaboushieh Bakery in Beirut's Hamra district to stock up on bread.
Officials have tried to mollify fears of shortages, saying wheat already in the country would last a month and new shipments would arrive this week atBut they lack silos, pointed out Moussa Khoury, a farming entrepreneur who ran Beirut's grain storage from 2014 to 2017.
