Syria among the affected... "Trump" halts funding for "UN World Food Programme" programs.

The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has halted funding for emergency programs under the World Food Program in 14 countries, including Syria, endangering the lives of millions in need of assistance. The decision affects conflict-ridden countries like Syria, Yemen, and Afghanistan, as well as 11 other poor countries. These programs used to secure food for millions in need worldwide. The World Food Program warned that suspending U.S. food aid to Syria could be a death sentence for millions already facing severe hunger in Syria. The deputy to the UN envoy to Syria stated that nearly 1.5 million Syrians are at risk of losing essential food aid.
