Reporter Anna Valtchuk visited the food banks in Weimar and Weißwasser and spoke with customers, including unemployed people and poor retirees. Many customers are refugees from Ukraine. Can people affected by poverty still afford the prices? And what problems do the food bank staff need to solve: fewer donations from supermarkets, high fuel costs, rents, and personnel costs. What's currently happening at the food banks and how much support is coming from the government?
