Qatar’s imports are set to be severely limited with a reported 40% of its produce coming through the Saudi Arabia land border
According to reports, at present there are food trucks stationed at the Saudi Arabia border, unable to enter Qatar.
It’s expected that inflation in Qatar will increase as it will depend solely on air and sea transport to import food.
Qatari residents have rushed to supermarkets with many stores shelves being completely emptied.
Some supermarkets in Doha have run out of water because people are panicking. It’s going to be a fun Ramadan in Qatar.
