Why Two Million Children May Starve in Africa
Briefly

The latest supply issues threaten to leave nearly two million children at risk of starvation amid worsening conditions. Urgent action is needed to secure food supplies.
Severe acute malnutrition can lead to death in children, especially in crisis zones, where they face high exposure to diseases like diarrhea and pneumonia.
UNICEF relies heavily on ready-to-use therapeutic food to treat severe malnutrition. Without this critical resource, many vulnerable children remain at risk.
19 million children under five are estimated to be severely acutely malnourished, resulting in around 400,000 annual deaths according to the World Health Organization.
