Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel encountered empty supermarket shelves during her vacation in Italy. Staff explained that farmers and truck drivers in southern Italy have been blocking roads for days due to sharply increased fuel prices, causing disruptions in supplies and leading to shortages of products such as pasta, fresh produce, and fuel. The situation is particularly severe on islands like Ischia, where ferry services may stop without new diesel supplies. Inflation in Italy has risen from 3.3 to 4.2 percent in September.
