Worldwide hunger slightly decreased in 2024, marking a third consecutive year of improvement, according to a recent UN report.
However, this positive trend is overshadowed by escalating food insecurity issues particularly within the African continent and Middle Eastern regions.
Conflict and harsh climate conditions significantly exacerbated existing problems, leading to widespread malnutrition and hunger crises.
The UN urges immediate action to address these pressing challenges and prevent further instability fueled by widespread hunger.
