The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) described Syria as one of the world's most complex humanitarian crises, with disruptions to wheat production and distribution severely affecting access to bread. More than half of the population faces hunger due to the aftermath of 13 years of civil war, the collapse of Bashar Al-Assad's regime, and a surge of returnees.
Most bakeries and mills remain partially operational, but they urgently need equipment upgrades and additional support to improve efficiency, extend working hours, and meet growing demand.
Current bakery output falls far short of population needs, with the biggest supply gaps recorded in Aleppo and Idlib.
To address the crisis, the UN and its humanitarian partners are working to restore the wheat-to-bread supply chain by rehabilitating infrastructure and providing essential resources, ensuring continued bread production in northwestern Syria, according to the report.
