Claim 5: “Nearly 750 million people face hunger today, according to the U.N. World Food Program”
DISPUTED
The claim states nearly 750 million people face hunger according to the WFP. However, WFP evidence shows 318 million facing acute hunger, and UN food data shows about 673 million living with chronic hunger. A different source mentions 750,000 people at risk of starvation, which is a vastly different number than 750 million.
