2016 Niger Delta conflict

It is a subset of the conflict in the Niger Delta, so I don't see any point to delete the previous one. I suggest better to list the global conflict with a subset link to the 2016 Niger Delta conflict (if there are some casulaties, which I have not checked yet). Wykx (talk) 19:55, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The wider conflict is to be listed, similar to Somali civil war or Afghan civil war.GreyShark (dibra) 11:53, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Philippine Drug War

Two months have passed since this was suggested and it has yet to cease. There allegedly seems to be vigilante groups allegedly working against (with) the government or allegedly with the drug lords and there seems to be at least on incident with police fatalities[1][2][3][4][5] [6] [7] [8] Shhhhwwww!! (talk) 11:34, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can you specify the groups?GreyShark (dibra) 12:35, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

RDC/Kananga

There is a conflict in Kananga, RDC where local chiefs have taken the airport against the central power. In two days, 107 fatalities including 7 from Central governement have been counted so far. See this link in French:[9] with intense fighting between local militias and the army [10] Can we create a new conflict page and include this new conflict in the list? Wykx (talk) 08:00, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not very much familiar with this event - is this a part of some ongoing or previous conflict?GreyShark (dibra) 15:59, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This conflict is new. It started after the death of the local chief in August 2016 after an attack at Tshimbulu resulting in 19 killed.[11]. He was contesting the central power and was calling for insurrection until he was killed by the police. His son has asked the local governement to officialize his own enthronement, which the local government never did. Then a place 180 km far from Kananga has first been captured by the militia. Then the airport of Kananga has been captured before being retaken by the army, and that's when the deathtoll has risen suddenly. Now that situation is calm, the local executive has called now for discussions and solidarity of the population against the insurrection. According to the governement the deathtoll is provisional with 49 dead and 185 captured.[12] Wykx (talk) 18:25, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So put it at the watchlist i guess. Let's see whether it develops further.GreyShark (dibra) 06:40, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Congo Brazzaville Pool Department Insurgency

Recently I have seen reports of armed conflict in the Pool Department in the Republic of Congo allegedly between the govt and members of the Ninja Milita. There have been conflicting reports over the amount of casualties, the opposition reporting hundreds and the govt much less. I am having a hard time finding reliable sources. Here are a few sources I found, some of questionable accuracy.

Colombia

Colombia's Congress has ratified its new peace deal.[1] This is the second deal. The first was rejected by voters but the second and revised has been approved. Is this grounds for removal from the article or is this a wait-and-see thing to see if it holds up (or if there is an implementation timeline) or to wait in case there is another referendum? (just in case, but it's unlikely)

Thoughts?

Thanks! :)
