The US Treasury has identified Abubakar Swalleh and Zayd Gangat as key figures in the ISIS machinery, serving as financial backers who enable the terrorist group's activities across Central, Eastern, and Southern Africa.
Senior Intelligence expert and Training Coordinator at the Institute for Security Studies (ISS), specializing in terrorism and explosives-related incidents Willem Els,” Very quickly, SA has been identified as a financial hub where the funding is generated and channel then to the ISIS to organization, but also to other terrorist organizations.
And yes, we should be worried because as I mentioned, there is one of the reasons why SA has been relisted. And more alarming, so some two weeks ago, with the 2024 National Risk assessment done by FedEx, they're actually downgraded SA from the risk to being moderate to the risk being high. So we should really be worried.”
