The World Food Programme (WFP) has warned that up to 45 million people in the Middle East could face severe food shortages by June if the United States and Israel continue their military actions against Iran. The agency’s Deputy Executive Director, Carl Skau, said rising costs of food, oil, and maritime transport are pushing millions toward acute hunger. Speaking to journalists in Geneva, he noted that global hunger levels could surpass the current record of 319 million people.

The WFP urged the global community to act swiftly to preserve food security and prevent further deterioration of living conditions in the affected areas.
