Bounded crisis tracker

Horn of Africa conflict tracker

Monthly conflict pulse for Ethiopia, Somalia, South Sudan and Eritrea: recorded events, political violence and fatalities from HAPI/HDX humanitarian summaries in a fixed four-country scope.

This tracker keeps a fixed four-country boundary across the Horn of Africa. Ethiopia, Somalia and South Sudan report through subnational humanitarian records while Eritrea reports nationally, so a country showing zero recorded events reflects the maintained dataset rather than an absence of risk.

How to read this tracker

Use these monthly country summaries as a bounded pulse, then inspect the dashboard for event-level context, map layers, and other independent signals. The figures are not forecasts and should not be interpreted as a complete casualty or incident ledger. World Monitor's forecasts are graded separately, and that record is published on the forecast accuracy scorecard.
