El Niño may hit 40-year record
The World Meteorological Organization has warned that the current El Niño phenomenon could be the strongest in 40 years, with Pacific Ocean water temperatures rising approximately 3.8 degrees Celsius above normal levels. This increase could exacerbate extreme weather events such as droughts, floods, and heatwaves around the world. On the other hand, the United Nations announced that around 50 million people may face heightened risks of food insecurity and hunger, with economic losses expected to range between $10 billion and $20 billion in African countries. Emphasis was placed on the importance of mobilizing funding and providing humanitarian aid in the next two weeks, especially in East Africa, to prevent the worsening of the human crisis.
