The impact of conflict ripples through our food systems - and families will feel it first.
Roughly 45 million more people could be pushed into acute hunger this year if conflict in the Middle East persists.
Without an adequately funded humanitarian response, it could spell catastrophe for millions already on the edge. ow.ly/OKMj50YvlUI
