▶ Answer & Explanation

Correct answer: D. None

North Kivu and Ituri are regions in the Democratic Republic of Congo experiencing significant conflict and displacement due to rebel group activity, not the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict. Nagorno-Karabakh is a disputed region between Armenia and Azerbaijan, a focal point of their long-standing conflict, and unrelated to Mozambique's internal insurgency. Kherson and Zaporizhzhia are Ukrainian regions heavily impacted by the Russian invasion, with no connection to the Israeli-Lebanese border disputes.
