UN warns hunger will worsen in global hotspots

A UN report warns of escalating hunger in 13 global hotspots, with Gaza, Sudan, and others facing immediate famine risk without urgent aid. The report, issued Monday, blames conflict, economic instability, and climate change for the worsening food crises. It highlights the need for increased funding and improved aid access to prevent widespread starvation in the next five months. The report identifies specific areas like Gaza, where the entire population faces acute food insecurity, and Sudan, where conflict continues to exacerbate the crisis. Other countries are also at high risk.
