Zimbabwe’s President Robert Mugabe has declared a state of disaster in rural parts of the country hit by a drought.
According to the BBC, an estimated 2.4 million people are now in need of food aid, more than a quarter of the population.
The announcement comes days after the EU urged Mr Mugabe to declare a state of disaster so donors can raise money quickly to provide food aid.
The government has urged Zimbabweans not to panic, as it is importing maize from neighbouring Zambia.
