EARTH · VERIFIED CONFLICT RECORD
Conflict in Uganda
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 6 Sept 2024 and 19 Apr 2026, researchers at Uppsala University hand-coded 8 events of organised violence in Uganda from published sources. Their best estimate is 12 people killed — and their own range runs 10–13, which is the honest width of what anyone actually knows.
What the record holds
UCDP range 10–13. On 1of 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.
6 placed precisely enough to map; 2 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 3 — the sources agree.
Acholi - Madi · non-state violence — two armed groups fight each other and neither is a government — militias, cartels, communal violence.
