SIPRI Yearbook 2020
I. Key general developments in the region
There were at least 15 countries with active armed conflicts in sub-Saharan Africa in 2019: Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, the Central African Republic (CAR), Chad, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Ethiopia, Kenya, Mali, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan and Sudan. Eight were low-intensity, subnational armed conflicts (i.e. with fewer than conflict-related 1000 deaths), and seven were high-intensity armed conflicts (with 1000–9999 deaths): Nigeria (5400), Somalia (4000), the DRC (3700), Burkina Faso (2200), Mali (1900), South Sudan (1800) and Cameroon (1200). Almost all of the armed conflicts were internationalized.1
