The UN World Food Programme has reported that the war in Iran is severely disrupting the delivery of essential food supplies, including wheat and canned goods.

These disruptions could lead to millions of individuals facing acute hunger if the situation does not improve. The logistical challenges are impacting the flow of aid to vulnerable populations.
