الجماعات الإرهابية المنتشرة في منطقة الساحل الإفريقي وآليات احتوائها

Abstract EN

The international security environment in the post-cold war period has generated a set of new security threats, such as organized crime, environmental threats, and transnational terrorist threats, these threats have impacted many regional systems, with the coastal regional system being the most affected due to the fragility of the national states within this system and their economic and military weaknesses.

this has made it a region of activity for numerous terrorist groups in the African Sahel and its neighboring geographic areas.

in response to this situation; coastal decision makers have had to adopt common and individual mechanisms to counter the escalating attacks by terrorist groups on both civilian and military targets.

based on the foregoing, this study will shed light on the topic of "terrorist groups deployed in the African Sahel region and mechanisms to contain them" by addressing the most active terrorist groups in the coastal territories; such as Boko Haram and the group for support of Islam and Muslims, and their impact on the region.

it will also discuss the mechanisms adopted by decision-makers in the countries of the region to fight this phenomenon and reduce its spread.
