"War in Ukraine means hunger in Africa": The conflict's impact on global food security 

DW, 19 Mar 2022
The UN says one in five Africans is under-nourished — some 300 million people that are facing starvation. Now it seems the conflict in Europe is about to make matters worse: The International Monetary Fund said this week that the "War in Ukraine means hunger in Africa."

The World Food Programme is also warning of a catastrophe, saying half of the grain it uses to feed the needy originates in Ukraine. It has also been forced to slash aid to some African countries because of the crisis.
