Conflict Index
- ACLED's Conflict Index ranks the world's most severe conflicts, using four indicators to score countries.
- Between December 2024 and November 2025, global conflict events reached about 205,000, with deaths exceeding 240,000.
- Ukraine and Palestine (Gaza) together drove more than 40% of conflict events in the past year.
- Syria saw a rise in conflict-related fatalities in the last 12 months.
- Ecuador and Haiti experienced rising rankings due to surges in gang violence and civilian-targeted events.
- ACLED provides an interactive dashboard for deeper analysis and data downloads.
- The top five countries largely held their positions, though internal conflict dynamics shifted.
- Palestine remained among the deadliest places despite temporary drops in conflict-related deaths due to ceasefires in Gaza.
- Fighting persisted in multiple theaters, including Nigeria, Syria, and Mexico, contributing to global risk levels.
- ACLED emphasizes diffusion, deadliness, civilian targeting, and fragmentation to assess conflict severity.
