Zimbabwe: A third of population faces food crisis, says UN

(Worthy News) – More than five million people in Zimbabwe – about a third of the population – need food aid, with many coming close to starving, the UN says.

David Beasley, head of the WFP, said many were “in crisis emergency mode… marching towards starvation”. [ Source: BBC (Read More…) ]
