ISIS militants wreak havoc in Mozambique, killing more than 1,000 in insurgency​

More than 1,000 homes have been torched by the militants, and entire villages are empty after residents fled

Islamic State-affiliated terrorists have reportedly formed a base hub of operations in Northern Mozambique, killing more than 1,500 people, and displacing more than 250,000, according to the European Union.

The militants intend to spread out from Mozambique’s Cabo Delgado province throughout Southern Africa unless stopped, according to analyst Jasmine Opperman of the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project.

“It is Islamic State, seeking a footprint in Southern Africa,” she told Fox News. “Islamic State needs a platform in the region to operate, and Cabo Delgado presents that opportunity, and hence I am saying there is a regional threat.”

The ISIS affiliate is carrying out atrocities there. This is an area where this was not seen in the past.

There is trouble getting food to people.

Now, I’ve heard the Mozambique army is accused of repression as well.

It’s a shame.
 
Yes, this is the new hotspot for ISIS. So much evil in this world.
 
Ah, that’s a good question we’ll probably never know.
 
It makes a difference when assessing which strains of Islam fit the Abu Dhabi narrative
