The war in Ukraine will have deadly ripple effects in the poorest, most conflict-ridden corners of the world.

First, a worldwide food and energy crisis is now inevitable. Ukraine and Russia together export 27 percent of the world’s wheat, and Russia is a major global supplier of fertiliser. Ongoing hostilities could force international food and animal feed prices up by 20 percent, and massively affect hunger levels in food-insecure hotspots.

This is so fucked. All of it so unnecessary.
