The North Africa region continues to face threats from terrorist groups affiliated with Al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM); the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), also known as Daesh); and FTFs who travelled to Iraq or the Syrian Arab Republic. The undetected return of FTFs to their countries of origin following ISIL’s territorial defeat poses additional security challenges. Moreover, lone actors and small cells have carried out a number of deadly attacks in recent years in several North African States and have proven difficult to detect.
