Consider the following pairs:
1. Donbas — Syria
2. Kachin — Ethiopia
3. Tigray — North Yemen
How many of the above pairs are correctly matched?
(a) Only one · (b) Only two · (c) All three · (d) None
उत्तर और व्याख्या · explanation in English
Answer: (d) कोई भी नहीं
None of the pairs is correct: Donbas is in Ukraine, Kachin is in Myanmar and Tigray is in Ethiopia. Each conflict zone has been attached to the wrong country.
- ✗ 1. Donbas is the coal-and-industry region of eastern Ukraine made up of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, where fighting has displaced people since 2014. It has nothing to do with Syria.
- ✗ 2. Kachin is a state in northern Myanmar, on the border with China. Fighting between government troops and Kachin rebels (the Kachin Independence Organization) has displaced tens of thousands there. It is not in Ethiopia.
- ✗ 3. Tigray is a region in northern Ethiopia, the centre of the northern Ethiopia conflict that began in November 2020. It has no link with North Yemen.
Remember · Donbas: Ukraine. Kachin: Myanmar. Tigray: Ethiopia. Place every conflict zone in its own country before matching.
