According to Unicef, the number of pregnant women and girls suffering from malnutrition has increased by a quarter in countries such as Somalia, Ethiopia, and Afghanistan over the last two years.
According to Unicef, more than a billion women and adolescent girls are malnourished worldwide.
It is concern that recent crises, such as war and Covid 19, have made it increasingly difficult for them to obtain the food they require.
It has urged the international community to prioritize food security, including the support of failing nutrition programs.
