Hormuz Blockade and Global Food Security

Attacks on Gulf chemical plants have badly hit the world's fertilizer production, which is expected to lead to lower crop yields and higher food prices in the coming months.

Nations like India and Haiti, which rely heavily on energy and food imports, are already seeing the impact on their populations.

The UN warns that the disruption to global supply chains could last well beyond the duration of the conflict itself.

Humanitarian organizations are calling for urgent action to protect food supplies and to ensure that the blockade does not prevent the delivery of essential aid to vulnerable regions.
