RISK SCORE CHANGES
INDIA Elevated 1.9 from Elevated 2.0: Reflecting a reduced risk to aviation and marine cargo due to a lower likelihood of military exchanges between the Indian and
Pakistani air forces and navies during the COVID-19 pandemic.
INDONESIA Elevated 1.8 from Elevated 1.7: Reflecting an increased risk of attacks against ground cargo around the Trans-Papua Highway Project and mining sites in
the Papua region, as well as to light aircraft from increasingly active insurgents.
IRAN High 2.9 from High 2.8: Reflecting an increased risk to marine cargo in the Gulf of Oman and Persian/Arabian Gulf. The concentration of US forces in Iraq at
fewer well-defended bases increases the likelihood of a more forceful response to further rounds of escalation with Iran.
MEXICO High 2.6 from High 2.7: Reflecting a reduced risk to aviation due to the absence of armed group intent to target airports or commercial airlines over the
last year. (Note: risks to marine and ground cargo are unaffected by this score reduction)
NIGERIA Very High 3.3 from Very High 3.2: Reflecting an increased risk of ground cargo being seized, confiscated or looted by security forces enforcing COVID-19
transport restrictions.
