Ongoing conflicts around the world

Ongoing conflicts around the world October 2012
  Major wars and civil unrest, 1,000+ deaths per year
  Minor skirmishes and conflicts, fewer than 1000 deaths per year

The following is a list of ongoing armed conflicts that are taking place around the world and which continue to result in violent deaths. This list is for the sole purpose of identifying present-day conflicts and the death toll associated with each conflict. Note:

  • Fatality figures include both civilian and military deaths unless otherwise indicated.
  • Military conflicts which no longer produce violent deaths are not listed here, but can be found in the historical list of wars and the list of wars extended by diplomatic irregularity.
  • Fatality totals may be underestimated or unavailable due to a lack of information. A figure with a plus sign (e.g. 455+) indicates that at least 455 people have died - the actual toll could be considerably higher.

1,000+ deaths per year[]

Conflicts in the following list are currently causing at least 1000 violent deaths per year, a categorization used by the Uppsala Conflict Data Program[1] and recognised by the United Nations.[2][3] Italics indicate disputed territories and unrecognized states.

Other conflicts - Fewer than 1,000 deaths per year or unknown[]

There are many other smaller-scale armed conflicts that are currently causing a smaller number of violent fatalities each year. Several ongoing military conflicts arose as part of the Arab Spring, though the phenomenon has included mostly peaceful protests. Italics indicate disputed territories and unrecognized states.
