    This article is from August but I'll use it to start a new thread for the radicalisation of Southern Africa... since it's only going to grow into a mammoth problem for South Africa & neighbouring countries....also eventually Europe as migration & human trafficking continue to build.

    The offshore gas projects are I believe the biggest in Africa (I stand corrected)

    South Africa next stop for these radicals, but in the meantime they are getting plenty of free propaganda with the help of the Mozambique army

    Ok since I last posted this thread 7-800 000 people have now been displaced in Mozambique. Ramaphosa have gone to Mozambique and likely South Africa will deploy around 3000 troops to Mozambique to help fight against ISIS.

    ISIS have in the past threatened South Africa, said if South Africa intervene in Mozambique they will start attacking South Africa.

    Ramaphosa urged to act on Mozambique violence
    Ramaphosa off to Maputo for heads of state and government conference.

    SADC to deploy troops to Mozambique
    A document leaked earlier this year recommended sending around 3,000 soldiers to insurgent-hit Cabo Delgado.
