UNICEF: Nearly 1 million children in Mali threatened with acute malnutrition

In Mali escalating armed conflict, mass displacement, and restricted humanitarian access is putting the most vulnerable at risk.
According to UNICEF, nearly 1 million children under the age of five are at risk of acute malnutrition by the end of this year.
At least 200,000 at risk of dying of hunger if live-saving aid fails to reach them and close to 5 million children are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance across Mali.
That is a 40% increase since 2020 of children who desperately need help.
