EARTH · VERIFIED CONFLICT RECORD
Conflict in Central African Republic
This is a verified record, not a live feed. UCDP hand-codes every event from published sources, which takes weeks — the newest event here is from 2026-05-31. For what is happening right now, LEV’s Global Incidents layer carries the machine-coded newswire at about fifteen minutes’ delay.
Between 7 Jan 2024 and 27 May 2026, researchers at Uppsala University hand-coded 183 events of organised violence in Central African Republic from published sources. Their best estimate is 967 people killed — and their own range runs 918–1,324, which is the honest width of what anyone actually knows.
What the record holds
UCDP range 918–1,324. On 2of these events UCDP’s own bounds do not bracket its own best estimate; the range above spans everything it published rather than hiding the conflict in the figures.
164 placed precisely enough to map; 19 counted but not pinned, because UCDP could place them no closer than a province.

Where UCDP had not yet established an actor’s identity it records a placeholder rather than a name; those appear here as “unidentified actor”.
The deadliest single event on record
UCDP's low and high agree on this figure. UCDP's low and high estimates are both 60 — the sources agree.
