The World Food Programme (WFP) has raised alarm over the growing food crisis in Lebanon, revealing that nearly a third of the country’s population is facing acute food insecurity following the escalation of conflict in late 2024.
In a statement shared on its official Twitter account, the WFP underscored the urgent need for humanitarian assistance, as the worsening situation threatens the livelihoods of millions. The ongoing instability has severely disrupted food supply chains, driven up prices, and left vulnerable communities struggling to access basic nutrition.
Lebanon, already grappling with economic turmoil and political instability, now faces an even greater challenge as conflict further compounds food shortages. Humanitarian agencies have called for immediate intervention to prevent a deepening crisis.
The WFP and other aid organizations continue to mobilize resources to provide food assistance, but the escalating crisis underscores the pressing need for sustained international support.
