Conflicts
Dossier archiveUkraine/Russia
Russia's war against Ukraine combines battlefield developments, air strikes, diplomacy, sanctions and competing claims about territory. The dossier separates confirmed developments from political messaging and watches how official statements change across the day.
LiveIsrael/Gaza
The Israel/Gaza dossier focuses on military developments, ceasefire diplomacy, civilian harm, aid access and regional spillover. Fast-moving claims are kept in the livefeed until source timing and location details line up.
LiveSyria
Syria coverage tracks armed conflict, governance and security developments, displacement, reconstruction and sanctions diplomacy. The dossier separates confirmed developments on the ground from political statements and looks at humanitarian consequences alongside security claims.
LiveIran
Iran-related updates often combine military signaling, proxy networks, sanctions and nuclear diplomacy. This dossier tracks what is stated officially, what is reported by media and what remains unverified.
LiveSudan
Sudan is tracked through conflict reports, humanitarian access, displacement, food security and international diplomacy. Humanitarian indicators matter here as much as battlefield claims.
LiveVenezuela
The Venezuela dossier follows political conflict, sanctions, election disputes, regional pressure and humanitarian consequences. It keeps domestic political claims separate from verifiable institutional actions.
LiveNATO/EU/Sanctions
This dossier tracks policy moves: sanctions, defence commitments, NATO statements, EU packages and military support. It is built for readers who want the decision timeline, not only the headline.
LiveMigration/Displacement
Migration and displacement are tracked as consequences of conflict, repression and humanitarian collapse. The dossier separates policy debate from verified movement, protection and aid data.
LiveNatural Disasters
Natural-disaster coverage tracks severe fires, earthquakes, floods and storms when they threaten lives, trigger evacuations or create a humanitarian emergency. Low-severity machine notifications do not become lead stories.
LiveGlobal Security
Global security collects relevant conflict, diplomacy, sanction and humanitarian-risk items that do not yet belong cleanly to a more specific dossier. It prevents loose live items from becoming dead ends.
LiveEthiopia
Ethiopia faces overlapping armed conflicts involving the Amhara insurgency, renewed tensions in Tigray, and growing regional friction with Eritrea. The country's instability has major humanitarian and regional security implications across the Horn of Africa.
LiveMozambique (Cabo Delgado)
The insurgency in Mozambique's Cabo Delgado province remains one of the world's most persistent security and humanitarian crises. Fighting involving Islamic State-linked militants, government forces, and regional partners continues to drive displacement, threaten major LNG projects, and affect regional stability in southeastern Africa.
LiveSouth China Sea
The South China Sea has become a major geopolitical flashpoint involving China's maritime claims, confrontations with the Philippines and other Southeast Asian states, and increasing involvement by the United States and allies. The dispute affects freedom of navigation, global trade routes and the risk of a wider military escalation in the Indo-Pacific.
LiveBalochistan Conflict
Pakistan's Balochistan province is experiencing a sustained separatist insurgency, with the Balochistan Liberation Army and other militant groups carrying out increasingly coordinated attacks against security forces, civilians and critical infrastructure. Violence has intensified in 2026, while the region's strategic location, mineral resources and China-linked CPEC infrastructure give the conflict significance beyond Pakistan's domestic security.
LiveRed Sea Crisis
The Red Sea Crisis concerns attacks and threats against international shipping by Houthi forces and related regional escalation around the Bab al-Mandeb strait. The issue has global significance because the route is a major trade corridor, and renewed attacks threaten maritime security, supply chains, and regional stability.
LiveIraq Conflict
Iraq is again becoming a major regional security flashpoint as Iran-backed militias, the Iraqi state and the U.S.-led security presence collide amid the wider Iran war. Baghdad is now seeking to bring militia weapons under state control, while the ISIS threat and the planned withdrawal of the international coalition add further instability.
LiveColombia Conflict
Colombia's long-running armed conflict has sharply intensified again, with fragmented armed groups expanding territorial control, driving displacement and restricting civilian movement. The new government has ended or hardened peace efforts, while the United States is openly discussing joint military strikes against the ELN and FARC remnants, giving the conflict a new regional-security dimension.
LiveMexico Cartel Conflict
Mexico’s long-running cartel conflict remains a major security crisis, with powerful armed criminal organizations controlling territory, fighting security forces and driving persistent violence. In 2026 it has gained renewed international significance through intensified U.S.-Mexico counter-cartel cooperation, sanctions and military operations, while cartel violence is increasingly affecting trade and regional security.
