Aid cuts risk pushing 13.7 million people into extreme hunger: WFP

The U.N.'s World Food Programme warned Wednesday that funding cuts risked pushing 13.7 million people currently receiving food aid into emergency levels of hunger across the world.

It warned that six key operations -- in Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Haiti, Somalia, South Sudan, and Sudan -- "are currently facing major disruptions, which will only get worse by year-end."
