In one of the most disturbing discoveries in Lebanon right now, more than 20 tonnes of children’s milk were found hidden and expired in a warehouse in Lebanon.
The milk, Nestle’s NIDO brand for ages under 1 and 2-3, reportedly expired while distributors waited for the subsidy to be removed.
Meanwhile, Lebanon is suffering – or mainly its babies are – from a shortage of baby formula, leaving families across the country distraught over their babies’ health and nutrition.
“The milk has spoiled while waiting for the subsidy to be lifted, while the children are starving and the parents are devastated because it is not available in the markets. The most corrupt are the monopoly dealers and the political system colluding with them. A day must be reckoned!” blasted Fadi Daou, the co-founder of Adyan Foundation.
