The joint UN report highlighted that acute food insecurity is poised to escalate in 22 countries, with conflict, climate impacts, and economic strain exacerbating the crisis.
The report emphasized that unless immediate humanitarian efforts are enacted, starvation and loss of life will persist in hotspots like South Sudan, Mali, and Haiti.
Growing conflicts, particularly in the Middle East, alongside environmental issues like La Nina, threaten already vulnerable food systems in desperate regions worldwide.
With ongoing conflicts and declining humanitarian funding, the UN agencies raised alarms over the severe food shortages that could emerge in 2024 and beyond.
