The UN World Food Programme has published a report in which it warns that the number of people on the verge of starvation has reached 45 million in 43 countries.

This is reported by ProAgro Group with reference to United Press International.

Earlier this year, the number of people on the verge of starvation reached 42 million, and in 2019 it was 27 million. The UN estimates that $7 billion is now needed to overcome global hunger.

WFP Executive Director David Beazley, after a trip to Afghanistan, where the program provided food support to nearly 23 million people, said military conflicts, climate change and the COVID-19 epidemic are causing a rapid increase in the number of people at risk of starvation.
