"Life-saving operations" to help African countries worst hit by the effects of two poor harvests, have been scaled-up, UN Radio says referring to the WFP (World Food Programme) report.
As to the report, the WFP has provided extra help in Malawi, Mozambique, Lesotho, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, and Madagascar, among others.
As to the report, the most recent drought was linked to the El Niño weather event, described by the UN as one of the strongest on record.
Its peak coincided with the crucial 2015 Oct-Dec growing season.
It is to be admitted, presently the WFP is assisting with food and cash while attempting to strengthen resilience building.
