LEBANESE bakers barred from buying subsidised flour for anything but Arabic bread
Lebanon’s minister of industry on Friday issued an order barring factories from producing certain goods using state-subsidised flour.
The decision, first reported by Lebanon’s National News Agency, will only allow bakeries that produce the pocketed flatbread known as “pita” or “Arabic bread” — a staple food item in the majority of Lebanese households — to purchase subsidised flour.
