Peace be upon you. The kaffara for deliberately breaking the fast on a day in the month of Ramadan is an option between freeing a slave, fasting for two consecutive months, or feeding sixty needy people, with each person receiving a measure (750 grams). The monetary value of the kaffara changes with fluctuations in prices. Sources: Ayatollah Sistani: 'Minhaj al-Salihin - Acts of Worship - Issue 1016.' Ayatollah Khamenei: 'Facilitated Jurisprudential Rulings, p. 252.' May you be successful in all good.
