Hunger must never be ‘weapon of war’, UN chief tells Africa food summit

At a food summit in Africa, UN chief Antonio Guterres emphasized that food should not be a weapon of war as 280 million people face hunger, especially in Africa, where the situation is deteriorating. Despite a slight global decline in hunger, the UN warns that millions remain food insecure, exacerbated by climate change, conflict, and economic disruptions, with urgent calls for increased support from donors.
