- 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.

No climate change is not the problem, the real problem is the political situation what affect the economy bringing poverty, and miserable life for the citizens of that countries.
With out hope of life improvement they will turn to the first ones with a better small piece of bread, even that person will bring more life freedom cuts.
Lack of social infrastructure, education,health care and security not system can last for long.
Climate change has made their lives that much more miserable - rains and such are much more sporadic and there's been increasing desertification; this leads to greater competition between farmers and herders
Did someone in the editing room say.... What we need is more Climate Change. Chuck in some precarious links in there because we can work out a future narrative of how Australia's lack of climate change initiatives is causing terrorism in Mali.
It might sound silly, but climate change has actually had an impact on the conflicts in Africa. In Sudan, for example, as the Sahara expands south camel herders in Darfur have been forced to migrate where they often encounter communities of sedentary cattle herders. The two communities sometimes get into conflict over herding territory.
What resources has the enpire found now?
Well as long as oil isn’t found there I don’t think the us will get heavily involved
Too late.
White people divided africa on ethinic group fauly line and relgious fault lines
These groups would have been mitigated if Qadaffi hadnt been removed from power.
You can't make this thing up! Unbelievable!
I dont think we're gunna make it guys. 2030s are gunna be wild
It's always those affected by the actions of a few that fall into radicalisation.. To combat this the world needs to tackle the larger issues, primarily climate change and secondary issues like education.. but there's no chance if there's no investment in a future for such outcast communities..
the more religious they are, the less interested they are in education.
WELL SOUND NO GOOD FOR FURTHER OF WORLD
Nahhh...
Ideology emerges for selling issues..... So if there are buyers & sellers.... Spread virus, etc ...... Wd y think?
May Allah’s curse be upon them Inshallah. They ruined my home of a Nigeria,
