Kherson and Zaporizhzhia — Dispute between Israel and LebanonHow many of the above pairs are correctly matched?

Accepted Answer

None. None is correct. North Kivu and Ituri are eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.Nagorno-Karabakh concerns Armenia and Azerbaijan. Kherson and Zaporizhzhia concern Russia and Ukraine.Every original pair attaches a region to the wrong conflict. “Only one”, “Only two” and “All three” therefore fail.Review the conflict settings and elimination steps.Sources: UPSC: 2023 General Studies I · UN: eastern Congo, March 2023 · UN: Nagorno-Karabakh resolution, 1993 · UN: Ukraine’s territorial integrity, 2022
