WFP Sees $200 Million Gap as Food Insecurity Rises in Zimbabwe

Columbus Mavhunga

   HARARE -- The United Nations World Food Program says it is struggling
   to raise more than $200 million to ease food insecurity in Zimbabwe.
   Economic collapse and recurring droughts in the country -- once the
   breadbasket of southern Africa -- have left 5.5 million people without
   enough to eat.

   Maria Gunzi, a 66-year-old widow, farms her land, but worries she will
   not have enough food to last until the next harvest.
