  • The Islamic State’s Central Africa Province—Drc

    Jason Warner, Ryan O’farrell et al.CHAPTERIslamic State in Africa2022

    The Islamic State’s Central Africa Province (ISCAP) is the Islamic State’s newest province--both in Africa and globally--and the only province declared after the fall of Baghuz in March 2019. ISCAP is composed of two “wings”: one in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and the other in northern Mozambique. ISCAP’s Congolese wing, (ISCAP - Congo) originated from the re-branding of a longstanding, Ugandan-led Islamist insurgency known as the …

    Jason Warner, Ryan O’farrell et al.CHAPTERIslamic State in Africa2022

    For years, a generally ignored Islamic State-sympathetic insurgency, then known as the Islamic State in the Greater Sahara (ISGS), operated at the crossroads of Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso: by al-Baghdadi’s death, the group would become a new wing of the northeastern Nigeria-based Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP), the former subsequently referred to as ISWAP - Greater Sahara (ISWAP - GS). While certainly never the largest or most ambi…

    The Mozambican wing of the Islamic State’s Central Africa Province (ISCAP–Mozambique) is--along with the branch in the DRC--a component of the Islamic State’s newest province.

A June 2019 claim by the Islamic State…

  • The Islamic State in Africa: The Emergence, Evolution, and Future of the Next Jihadist Battlefront

    Jason Warner, Ryan Cummings et al.BOOKIslamic State in Africa2022

    In 2019, Islamic State lost its last remaining sliver of territory in Syria, and its Caliph, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was killed. These setbacks seemed to herald the Caliphate’s death knell, and many now forecast its imminent demise. Yet its affiliates endure, particularly in Africa: nearly all of Islamic State’s cells on the continent have reaffirmed their allegiance, attacks have continued in its name, many groups have been reinvigorated, and a ne…

    Open AccessClionadh Raleigh, Héni Nsaibia et al.ARTICLEAfrican Affairs2021Cited by: 12

    The ‘perfect storm’ that enveloped Mali in 2012 has since escalated into a protracted and widespread crisis across the Sahel. The region currently hosts multiple, moving threats, which are most active in the three states of Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger. In those states alone, between 2012 and 2019, there have been 1,463 armed clashes, 4,723 civilians killed, at the hands of 195 violent armed groups, in 1,263 discrete locations.1 Violence reached…
