London (IP) – One week after the recent hurricane in the UK, the adverse effects of this natural disaster are casting a shadow over the economy and the well-being of the people. Some British stores are still short of some groceries.

Iran PressEurope: Hurricane Younis, which issued a “red” weather warning for London for the first time is the fifth named storm of the season, which started in November last year. The storm is named by the UK Met Office, which introduced the system in 2015.

The Iran Press video footage shows the fruit shelves, cans, bread, and paper napkins in the stores of Aldi, Tesco, Lidl, Morrisons, and Sainsbury's in London, have been empty or in short supply since a week ago.

Some customers pass by the empty shelves with surprise.

Some experts believe that the recent hurricane has made it difficult to transport some goods, but some also believe that panic and inadequate food storage before the hurricane are the main reasons for this shortage.

The shortage of some food items has made the face of British stores look like the onset of the COVID pandemic, and goods' prices are rising.

The demolition of some passages and walls of residential areas and the fall of large trees in public places in London are other effects of the hurricane; in some cases, the fallen trees are still left on cars parked in the streets, passages, yards, and children's playgrounds.

Meanwhile, energy prices in the UK are still rising. Earlier, British news sources reported a 54 percent increase in gas and electricity prices in Britain, and a Russian attack on Ukraine is expected to boost energy prices in the UK, which is dependent on Russian energy.
