New Report - Sibylline Extremism Quarterly, and how extremist groups are expanding their area of influence in the Sahel
In this week's episode, EMEA Director Jonathan Dunbar discusses the launch of Sibylline's latest report, the Global Extremism Quarterly, with Sub-Saharan Africa Analyst Ben Manzin and James Barth, our North America Analyst. They discuss the contents of the report and the impetus for creating it, detailing the unprecedented pace of change in the threat landscape of extremism. They also dive into one of the themes discussed in this quarter's report and assess the latest developments in the Sahel, where extremist groups continue to increase their footprint throughout the wider region. Continued development of their position in Burkina Faso and Mali threatens to create a platform from which they can increase incursions into West African states. However, their focus has thus far remained on securing rural areas rather than targeting cities where businesses are primarily located.
