Central African Republic
Brutal conflict between rebel groups in Central African Republic has left the country in a state of violent chaos since 2012.
The Central African Republic conflict has permeated every facet of society. Schools have closed, the health care system is barely functioning, and Central Africans have been forced to flee their homes.
The ongoing Central African Republic Civil War is involving the government, rebels from the Séléka coalition, and Anti-balaka militias.
