Events by Country

Counts of recorded events per country for the last 90 days (from 2026-07-06), the last 12 months (from 2025-10-04) and all time, with the most recent event. Counts are tallies of records, not measures of intensity.

Baghdad and the Tigris. Iraq hosts most of the groups in this tracker.

How countries are assigned: UCDP events use UCDP's country; US statements use the place they name ("At sea" for maritime attacks); Treasury actions use the country named most often in the release; Federal Register notices sit under the United States. UCDP GED covers 1989 to 2025, so 2026 counts come from US government records alone.

Yemen and Saudi Arabia: From 2015-03-07, UCDP GED records the side holding Sanaa as "Government of Yemen (North Yemen)". We show rows with that actor under Ansar Allah (Houthis), reading that side as the Houthi-led authorities; this attribution is our reading of UCDP coding, not a UCDP label (see Method). These rows include Sanaa-authority fighting against the Presidential Leadership Council forces, AQAP, IS, the GPC and the STC, one-sided violence against civilians, and US, UK and Israeli strikes on the Sanaa side.
