Yemen leads global hunger risk
The United Nations warns of a severe deterioration in food security in Yemen, where more than half of the population is experiencing extreme levels of food insecurity. The country faces the risk of famine due to ongoing war, economic collapse, and declining humanitarian funding. A FAO report indicated that around 53% of Yemenis are currently facing high levels of food insecurity, with some areas reaching catastrophic nutritional conditions. Humanitarian funding had only met 14% of the needs as of June. The Yemeni rial’s exchange rate has stabilized temporarily, but the economy remains fragile. Prices for fuel and transportation continue to rise, and wheat and flour imports have decreased by 28%.
