Only 2⃣out of 6⃣0⃣ rural districts in #Zimbabwe have sufficient food to last 12 months. This demands urgent action. @WFP is working with @OMpslsw , other @UNZimbabwe agencies, donors, and partners to ensure no one is left behind.

From 220 bags of maize to just 3 – that's how little Royd harvested in #Zambia this year due to a historic drought in Southern Africa. @WFP is working tirelessly with partners to deliver food assistance & build resilience. We must act now to avert a humanitarian catastrophe.
