The Senegalese armed forces are involved in a decades-old non-international armed conflict with the Mouvement des Forces Démocratiques de la Casamance (MFDC) principally the MFDC-Front Sud and some splinter factions. In 1991, the military wing of the MFDC split in to two: the MFDC-Front Sud and MFDC-Front Nord. The MFDC-Front Sud represents the large parts of the MFDC, including its leading political figure, Augustin Diamacoune Senghor. Reports indicate that there have been further subdivisions within the military wing of the MFDC because of a limited ability to exercise command and control and a lack of political leadership within the MFDC.
