UN Warns of Global Food Crisis: 345 Million Face Hunger
Update: 2025-12-12
Description
Over three hundred and forty-five million people face high levels of food insecurity, a two hundred million person increase since early 2020, according to a new UN report. The World Food Programme warns that without immediate action, millions could face famine due to a perfect storm of crises, including conflict, climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The war in Ukraine has exacerbated the situation, disrupting supply chains and driving up food prices. The WFP calls for an urgent increase in humanitarian aid and long-term solutions for food systems to prevent a catastrophic humanitarian crisis.
