List of ongoing armed conflicts
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d9/Ongoing_conflicts_around_the_world.svg/450px-Ongoing_conflicts_around_the_world.svg.png)
The following is a list of ongoing armed conflicts that are taking place around the world and continue to result in violence. This list is for the sole purpose of identifying present-day conflicts and the death toll associated with each conflict. Note:
- Fatality figures include both civilian and military deaths unless otherwise indicated.
- Listed conflicts are at least 100 cumulative deaths in total and at least 1 death in current or past calendar year.
- Military conflicts that no longer produce violence are not listed here, but can be found in the historical list of wars and the list of wars extended by diplomatic irregularity.
- Fatality totals may be underestimated or unavailable due to a lack of information. A figure with a plus sign indicates that at least that many people have died (e.g. 455+ indicates that at least 455 people have died) - the actual toll could be considerably higher.
- Only states with ongoing military activity are listed, past states and states where conflicts are no longer active are omitted.
