The rising global cost of conflicts, crises, and funding cuts is being paid by families who can least afford it. WFP’s Acting Executive Director @CarlSkau explains how hunger is rising, while our ability to respond is increasingly limited.

DRC’s latest Ebola epidemic is now the third largest in history. WFP experts warn the outbreak risks deepening both health and food crises — unless the response scales up fast. ⤵️ www.wfp.org/stories/frontlines-drcs-ebola-...

⚠️ WFP is being forced into impossible choices — reaching only a fraction of those in need. When resources are there, we deliver. When they’re not, people are left behind. WFP’s @RaniabtBakhita explains👇

📍#DRCongo: As Ebola resurges, WFP and partners are providing vital meals to patients in treatment centres.   Malnutrition weakens the body’s defences — increasing the risk of severe illness.   Sustained support is critical to protect communities from both disease and hunger.

🆘 Akobo is one of four counties in #SouthSudan at risk of famine. WFP has reached more than 60,000 people over the last three weeks with critical food and nutrition assistance. ⚠️ Sustained access and an end to fighting is urgent to reach all those in need. www.wfp.org/news/wfp-scales-emergency-resp...Mostrar mais

Aid workers. Supply routes. Warehouses. Food deliveries. These are lifelines — not targets. #NotATarget

Providing life-saving food assistance takes more than one step. Every stage of WFP’s supply chain matters—from planning and procurement to transport, storage, and delivery. 5 steps. One mission: supporting those most in need.

🔴#Ukraine: A warehouse used for WFP humanitarian operations was targeted yesterday by a missile. The facility was storing humanitarian food assistance, sufficient to support 130,000 people. Humanitarian assets are #NotATarget. 🔗ukraine.un.org/en/316191-un-wfp-warehouse-...Mostrar mais

✈️ What is an airlift? It’s how relief reaches people when roads are impassable. In South Sudan, where roads can vanish for months, WFP aviation delivers food, water and medicine at scale - 13,000+ tons delivered and 9,400 tons airdropped in 2025.

🚨 Burhakaba, #Somalia is on the brink of catastrophe. Nearly 40% of children under five are acutely malnourished. Across Somalia, 6 million people face crisis hunger — but funding gaps mean WFP can reach only 1 in 10.

🚨 #SouthSudan faces one of its most severe hunger crises. In Akobo, WFP is racing to stabilize food security and reach the most vulnerable before conditions worsen. But needs are rising fast — and access remains a major challenge. Hear from our emergency coordinator 👇

In Haiti, @WFPSupplyChain provides a vital link for WFP and the humanitarian sector - moving food and supplies through some of the toughest conditions to reach families in need. WFP's Channon shows how we keep assistance flowing when it matters most ➡️

This is not just a fight against a virus. It is also a fight to prevent a health emergency from becoming a hunger catastrophe. Speed is critical. Early action can stop #Ebola from spreading and prevent a deeper humanitarian crisis. www.wfp.org/stories/eastern-drc-ebola-outb...Mostrar mais

🆘#Somalia: A rapidly intensifying hunger emergency is pushing 6 million people into critical levels of food insecurity. New data shows nearly 2 million children are acutely malnourished. UN agencies warn the risk of famine is rising without urgent action.

📍In #Afghanistan, families cannot always afford nutritious food. At WFP-supported clinics, treatment helps children recover from malnutrition - restoring their health and reducing illness. For many, it is the only support they can rely on. 🔗www.wfp.org/stories/wfp-lifeline-keeping-f...Mostrar mais

Funding shortfalls are forcing WFP to scale back food assistance in #Syria — cutting support for hundreds of thousands of people and halting a nationwide bread programme that helps millions each day. More support is needed to keep assistance flowing to those who need it most.

Humanitarian supply chains are lifelines. From the frontlines of crises to the most remote communities, WFP moves fast to deliver food, cash and relief where it matters most. This is what the world’s largest humanitarian supply chain looks like. 🔗 wfp.org/supply-chain

The ripple effects of the Middle East conflict continue to impact the global economy. The true cost of this crisis will extend far beyond the frontlines - on the dinner tables of families who can least afford it.

🔴 Rising operational costs mean the same funding is reaching fewer people. WFP has already been forced to stop assisting 1.5 million people as the cost of fuel, food and transport reduces our reach. Up to 9 million people could be cut from assistance this year if high prices…Mostrar mais

⚠️A hunger crisis in #Somalia is unfolding. It's driven by a dangerous combination of drought, reduced humanitarian assistance, and the ripple effects of conflict in the Middle East. Hear from WFP's @mfjhollingworth in Puntland, one of the areas hardest hit. ⤵️

Across oceans and borders, through conflict zones and tough terrain, WFP teams bring food, cash and relief to people in need—any way we can. This is the world’s largest humanitarian supply chain. 🔗 wfp.org/supply-chain

📍#Gaza: Six months into the ceasefire and food security remains a major concern. 🟡Families face numerous challenges as hunger continues to cast its shadow over many lives. 🟡WFP is on the ground, supporting those most in need, but true recovery requires more than just aid.

🔴 Global shocks don’t stay in markets — they show up in what families can afford to eat. If the conflict in the Middle East continues and fuel prices remain high, even basic staples will be pushed out of reach for millions, driving acute hunger higher in 2026.

🔴Before the Middle East crisis, 318 million people were severely hungry. Now, around the world, food prices are shooting up and the most vulnerable people will be hit hardest. 📣We must act now to prevent catastrophe for millions. www.wfp.org/stories/how-mideast-crisis-dee...Mostrar mais
