Ten years after Paris atttacks, West Africa has become world's terrorism hotspot

As France prepares to honor the victims of the November 13, 2015 Paris attacks, the landscape of global terrorism has dramatically shifted. West Africa has emerged as the new epicenter of jihadist violence, a trend that underscores the need for international attention and intervention. This shift coincides with domestic unrest in Tunisia, where protests in Gabès reflect growing public concern over environmental and health issues linked to industrial activities. Additionally, South Africa faces ecological threats as fish stocks dwindle under the pressures of climate change and overfishing, illustrating a broader pattern of environmental degradation that intersects with social and political instability.
