SAPARA, DOSSO REGION, NIGER Terrorists affiliated with the notorious ISIS organization carried out an attack on the small Christian village of Sapara. In addition to civilians, they also killed several Nigerien soldiers. After the massacre, they set fire to the church.
Niger is located in the Sahel, currently considered one of the most unstable regions in the world. The area is home to ISIS, specifically its African branch ISGS – Islamic State in the Greater Sahara – as well as various radical Islamist groups linked to the infamous Al-Qaeda. The terrorists exploit weakened state governance and the chaos following coups in the region to strengthen their power and expand their influence.
