USAID once provided 40% of global aid. It’s no longer operational. Will this reshape global conflict? Unlikely. Political competition—not aid—drives violence. ?? Ukraine & Gaza’s conflicts won’t shift due to aid cuts—they are politically driven. ?? In Ethiopia, Somalia & Syria, aid supports food & healthcare—not war. The real crisis? Severe economic & social fallout, from healthcare to climate impacts. Clionadh Raleigh breaks it down: https://lnkd.in/eq-_j9Nz

Since 2014, ACLED has operated as a non-profit, non-governmental organization incorporated in Wisconsin. In 2022, ACLED expanded coverage to the entire world, collecting data in real time and publishing weekly updates.

Cabo Ligado Update with Zitamar News and Mediafax: 24 February - 9 March 2025 Insurgent activity in Cabo Delgado slowed last fortnight, with just three recorded political violence events. However, Islamic State Mozambique (ISM) fighters continue to move freely by boat, raising concerns about their operational reach. Meanwhile, state security forces appear more focused on repressing protests than countering the insurgency—with police firing on demonstrators at least 11 times since President Daniel Chapo’s inauguration. Allegations of corruption and human rights abuses are also mounting, with the Interior Minister linked to an arms import scandal, and the Netherlands launching an inquiry into state-backed violence in Palma. Cabo Delgado remains volatile. Explore ACLED’s latest analysis: https://lnkd.in/dfGW6ubj

#Ukraine Conflict Update | 1 – 7 March 2025 Russian forces intensified attacks in Kursk, seizing strongholds north of Sudzha and advancing south, partially cutting off Guevo and targeting key supply routes. By the end of the week, Russia had retaken two-thirds of the territory Ukraine captured in August 2024. The arrival of North Korean reinforcements and a weeklong US aid suspension may have contributed to Russia’s rapid gains. Meanwhile, violence against civilians remained severe: ?? 1,154 political violence events (7% decrease) ?? 66 attacks on civilians (down 22%), but fatalities surged ?? At least 41 civilian deaths (29% increase) Track the latest developments: https://lnkd.in/dMw7xYHe
