Sahel: The New Front In The Ukraine-Russia War – Analysis

On 24 February 2022, when Russia began its airstrike in the Donbas region of Ukraine, no one imagined it to become a full-blown war, nor that it would continue for so long. Yet, more than two years later, the metastasising war goes on. Despite the distance, the repercussions of the war have been deeply felt across Africa, threatening its food and energy security. In July 2023, a seven-member African peace delegationvisited both Russia and Ukraine to persuade two leaders to end the destructive war. Unfortunately, like many other peace initiative proposals by other countries, this effort also faltered as none of the leaders agreed to negotiate.

What is the future of Hamas and Gaza under new leader Yahya Sinwar?

Analysis: Yahya Sinwar’s appointment as leader centres Hamas’ political and military decision-making in the Gaza Strip while strengthening ties with Iran.

Hamas’ decision to name Yahya Sinwar, a long-time military hardliner, as its new political chief will centre the group’s decision-making in embattled Gaza, shore up the group’s ties with its primary backer Iran, and leave the prospects for a desperately needed ceasefire uncertain, political analysts have told The New Arab.

Russia Is Being Drawn Deeper Into the Middle East Conflict

A steady flow of Russian weapons to Tehran could change the balance of power in the region, potentially triggering a response from the United States and Israel.

Edwin Montagu’s memoir on anti-Semitism of the current (British) government – Submitted to the British Cabinet, August 1917

I have chosen the above title for this memorandum, not in a hostile sense, not at all to quarrel with an anti-Semitic point of view that could be defended by my colleagues, not with the desire to deny that anti-Semitism can be defended by rational men, not even with the aim of suggesting that the government is deliberately anti-Semitic; but I wish to state my opinion that the policy of the government is anti-Semitic.all the countries of the world.

The Financial Future of the Islamic State

Abstract: The fall of the Islamic State’s caliphate in Iraq and Syria significantly impacted the group’s ability to fundraise through territorial control. Despite this loss, the group retained substantial financial reserves, estimated between $10 million to $30 million, some of which were stored outside its immediate area of operations. These funds have enabled the Islamic State to sustain and expand its global network of provinces and sub-groups, primarily in Africa and Asia, through the General Directorate of Provinces and by providing start-up and sustenance funds to its various sub-groups. This article provides an in-depth analysis of the Islamic State’s financial strategies post-caliphate, illustrated through case studies of various Islamic State provinces and sub-groups and their financing mechanisms. The Islamic State’s evolving global strategy and financial strength is a challenge for international efforts to combat the group’s persistent and adaptive financial network. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications for global security.

In the Shadow of the Caliphate: A Decade of Islamic State Gendered Violence

Abstract: Throughout its rule, the Islamic State employed an ideologically driven system of control and persecution, resulting in widespread gendered violence perpetrated by and against men, women, and even children. On the 10th anniversary of the start of the group’s genocidal campaign against the Yazidi community, Islamic State ideology persists, and its members have yet to be held fully accountable for crimes against civilian and minority populations. This article explores the Islamic State’s gendered violence during and since its caliphate years, and it considers how a diverse spectrum of responses from local and international actors have aided or hampered efforts to achieve justice, peace, and security.
