The article highlights the significant price increases in essential food items, particularly plain yogurt and beans, in Egypt as the Ramadan season approaches. The cost of a 110-gram yogurt package has seen a drastic rise, reaching between 4.5 to 5 pounds, an increase of 67% to 80% compared to the previous year's range of 2.5 to 3 pounds. This surge in dairy prices is attributed to various crises, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the fluctuation in the dollar's value against the Egyptian pound, and issues with documentary credits. Additionally, the price of local fava beans has surged by about 2,000 pounds per ton, affecting the affordability of Suhoor meals for many citizens. These developments underscore the economic challenges faced by Egypt's population, especially with the rampant inflation and the financial repercussions of the ongoing crises.
