    Today I'll be having a chat about the recent Human Rights Watch report of Venezuelan troops supporting criminal and insurgent attacks against civilians across the Colombian Border. We'll have a look at each of the main actors, the situation which has brought them to this point, and what they might want out of it!

    5WH 012 - Timeout in Tigray
    2022/03/31
    Shooting back to the subject of episode 8, the Ethiopian government has recently agreed a humanitarian ceasefire with the rebels in the Tigray Province, yet there doesn't seem to be a firm roadmap for peace, or much in the way of the promised humanitarian aid. Join me to think about what this might mean for Ethiopia moving forward, and the limitations of conflicts and ceasefires.

    Welcome back to 5WH! As I'm sure many of you will have heard, the Haitian President, Moise, was assassinated by a group of "mercenaries" last week, and I'm going to take a quick whizz through what you need to know to put his death in some context. Grab a coffee or a snack and join me for Havoc in Haiti.

    2021/02/28
    The Italian ambassador to the Democratic Republic of Congo was killed in what many believe was an attempted kidnapping while on a visit to a World Food Programme site in the east of the country. The attack has raised numerous questions, and been tragically underserved by the main stream media coverage, so join me for a quick glance at the wider context that led up to this tragedy.

    2020/11/13
    Some of you may have noticed that conflict has kicked off in Ethiopia's Tigray region, with Federal forces conducting offensive operations against local militias. As is sadly the norm in conflicts of this nature, atrocities have been reported, and it remains unclear what either side's end-state would be.

    5WH 007 - Europe's Turkish Headache
    2020/10/06
    Late last week the European Council held a summit on external relations. While promoted as a forum to address political unrest in Belarus and armed conflict in the Caucasus (see episode 006!) the summit appeared to be hijacked by Greece and Cyprus as a platform to address what they consider to be ongoing aggression by Turkey within their waters. If you're feeling left a bit high-and-dry by media coverage of this, join me to explore it in a bit more depth!

    5WH 006 - Caucasian Chaos
    2020/10/01
    Azerbaijan assaulted an Armenian-held enclave known as Nagorno Karabakh in the early hours of Sunday 27 September. Since then, both forces have been locked in combat, seeking to wrest control of key terrain in the region from each other. This is the latest in several decades of conflict, but the most severe recent outbreak. Somewhat concerningly, Russia and Turkey are backing opposing sides, and there remains scope for this to escalate into a full-scale proxy war. If this sounds like something you want to know about, hit play, and enjoy your breakfast!
