In central Gaza, people wait in long lines outside Zadna Bakery as food shortages intensify. The recent cease-fire allowed some aid but was abruptly halted on March 2 when Israel blocked goods. This has led to panic buying and price gouging, with scalpers selling bread for three times its original price. As markets empty, residents are turning back to canned food, and desperation grows. The situation preys on the community's vulnerability, especially during Ramadan, a time of increased demand for essential supplies.
