United Nations warns of worsening global food insecurity

The United Nations has issued a fresh warning on rising global food insecurity, stating that millions of people across Africa, Latin America, and parts of the Middle East are facing increased risks due to supply chain disruptions, inflation, and ongoing regional conflicts. According to the latest UN assessment, food prices remain unstable while humanitarian funding gaps are widening, limiting emergency response efforts. Officials stressed the urgent need for international cooperation, increased aid, and sustainable agricultural investment to prevent a deeper crisis. Analysts note that without swift action, food shortages could intensify migration pressures and social unrest in several vulnerable regions.
