billion dollars in aid to alleviate the hunger afflicting millions.<\/p>\n<p>This declaration follows similar proclamations by Zambia in late February and Malawi in March, as the El Ni\u00f1o weather phenomenon exacerbates the humanitarian crisis in southern Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing journalists at the state house in Harare, Mnangagwa highlighted that more than 2.7 million Zimbabweans are set to face hunger this year, with 80% of the country experiencing insufficient rainfall.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Preliminary assessments indicate a necessity for over two billion dollars to support various interventions in our national response,&#8221; stated Mnangagwa.<\/p>\n<p>The government pledges to prioritize winter cropping to bolster reserves and collaborate with the private sector to facilitate grain imports.<\/p>\n<p>El Ni\u00f1o, a natural weather phenomenon causing disrupted wind patterns and elevated ocean surface temperatures in the eastern and central Pacific, lies at the root of the crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Since November, most Zimbabwean provinces have grappled with crop failure, with maize, a staple, declared a write-off in hotter regions.<\/p>\n<p>Humanitarian agencies, including the World Food Programme, have described the situation as dire and urged donors to step up aid efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond Zimbabwe, neighbouring countries such as Botswana and Angola to the west and Mozambique and Madagascar to the east also confront severe hunger due to the ongoing drought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Mnangagwa declares Zimbabwe&#8217;s drought
