The facts

  1. The estimate includes 1.8 million people in Emergency, IPC Phase 4. Crisis is Phase 3; these findings do not classify the entire country as being in famine. [1]

  2. For March–June 2027, the analysis projects 6.35 million people in Crisis or worse, or 57% of the analysed population, including nearly two million in Emergency. [1]

  3. The report identifies insecurity, displacement, disrupted markets, high prices and declining assistance among the pressures on access to food. [1]

  4. Aid workers interviewed by the Associated Press described severe access difficulties caused by armed groups and blocked routes. [2]

Still unconfirmed

  • The 2027 figures are projections and depend on how security, assistance and other conditions develop.
