The new frontline of global terrorism: terror groups infiltrating West Africa’s Sahel | ABC News
Global terror groups are expanding their presence in West Africa’s Sahel.
The region’s conflict ecosystem is being shaped by climate change, ethnic conflict and decades-old insurgencies.
Counterterrorism experts tell us how Al Qaeda and ISIS are effectively infiltrating and exploiting local and regional conflicts, consolidating territorial control through establishing new affiliates and filling their ranks with new recruits.
The Sahel region has seen a spike in violence in recent years despite foreign intervention including transnational security forces.
