Economic Impact: The \"Perfect Storm\" The conflict in the Middle East has triggered a massive economic shock in Somalia, which imports roughly 90% of its food. Fuel Price Surge: Domestic fuel prices have skyrocketed by 150% in Mogadishu, rising from $0.60 to $1.50 per liter, crippling local transportation and diesel-powered electricity. Food Cost Inflation: The price of imported staples and basic commodities like cooking oil has jumped—in some cases nearly doubling in retail value—while grains like sorghum and maize have risen by 25-33%.
