A UN agency says North Korea is among the countries with the most acute need for humanitarian assistance in the Asia-Pacific region.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs released an infographic on Tuesday that visualizes the results of its “Regional Focus Model" that identifies hazard-prone countries.

The North’s food security was ranked last out of 38 countries in the Asia-Pacific region.

North Korea was also assessed to be in urgent need of humanitarian aid, along with Myanmar, Pakistan, Bangladesh and the Philippines.
