There are 22 conflicts around the globe that threaten to erupt into major military standoff

Crisis in Syria … crisis in North Korea… Russia and America facing off… and ­China getting itself involved in the mix.

Yet those are just the most visible flashpoints in a world riven by conflict – look beyond them and there are plenty more trouble spots that could escalate globally.

In Syria, mercenaries, terrorists and soldiers from over 100 countries are involved. More than 400,000 people have been killed and millions displaced in what is the worst of more than 20 conflicts globally.

North Korea’s sabre-rattling continues with threats of more nuclear bomb tests, ­fuelling further tension of a worldwide clash.

America’s bombing of an IS lair in Afghanistan three days ago was seen as a warning shot to the likes of Korean despot Kim Jong-Un to back off. President Donald Trump has also sent the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier – codenamed Gold Eagle – towards the Korean peninsula.
