Each country's dossier carries the Instability Index this violence feeds into.
Source: UCDP Georeferenced Event Dataset. Violence recorded between these actors is classified as one-sided (281 events). Deaths are UCDP best estimates summed over recorded events; a death is attributed to the country the event occurred in, which is why a conflict can appear under more than one country.
