Giving zakat al-fitr to beggars in the streets

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Is it permissible for me to give the beggars who are in the streets during Ramadan or at the traffic signals from my zakat al-fitr? And does it suffice for me?

Answer:
By Allah, the precaution is that you do not give it to them; give it to needy people among your neighbors, those around you, or your needy relatives. Yes.
