Zimbabwe's cabinet has reported that more than half of the nation's 15 million citizens will need food aid until March next year due to the impact of the El Niño weather phenomenon and a devastating drought. The drought has led to widespread crop failure, with the corn crop reduced by 72%, severely affecting the livestock industry and disrupting global supply chains. The government has declared a national state of disaster and appealed for help from humanitarian organizations. According to the Zimbabwe Livelihoods Assessment Committee (ZIMLAC), about 6 million people in rural areas and 1.7 million in urban areas will require assistance.
