Qatar says it has strengthened its strategic food security reserves, with supplies sufficient to cover the country’s needs for up to 18 months.
According to the Qatar News Agency, Interior Minister Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani said the current situation has not required the use of these reserves so far.
He added that efforts are continuing to reinforce them, while additional supply lines have been opened to ensure the stability of food supplies.
The minister also said Qatar currently holds enough strategic water reserves to meet around four months of consumption, with authorities continuing to expand storage capacity as part of national water security plans.
On healthcare readiness, Sheikh Khalifa said the health sector is implementing approved contingency plans to ensure the continued delivery of medical services.
He added that Qatar has maintained a strategic stock of essential medicines sufficient for nine months, along with medical supplies that can last for up to a year.
