Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>The UN warned on Monday about the continued threat posed by the terrorist group ISIS (Daesh), saying that it continues to show resilience and adapt its approach.<\/p>\n

“Despite steady counter-terrorism efforts by Member States, international and regional partners, Da\u2019esh (ISIS) continues to demonstrate resilience and adapt its modus operandi,” UN Under-Secretary-General for Counter-Terrorism Vladimir Voronkov told a Security Council meeting on threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts.<\/p>\n

On Syria, Voronkov warned that stockpiles of advanced weapons could fall into terrorist hands and that ISIS continues to use Syria\u2019s Badia region as a hub for planning operations.<\/p>\n

He also noted a decline in repatriation efforts, saying that only five member states had returned more than 760 individuals from Iraq and Syria in the reporting period.<\/p>\n

Echoing UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’ call to prevent Afghanistan from becoming a terrorist stronghold again, Voronkov said: “In sub-Saharan Africa, Da\u2019esh (ISIS) and its affiliates continued to increase their operations and expand territorial control.”<\/p>\n

He also expressed “deep” concern over rising ISIS attacks in West Africa and the Sahel, including on schools in Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger.<\/p>\n

“The resilience of terrorist groups underscores the need for sustained international collaboration,” he said, outlining four priority areas in counter-terrorism: capacity-building in Sub-Saharan Africa, assisting member states with prosecuting and reintegrating individuals linked to terrorist groups, strengthening border security, and supporting the use of new technologies to combat threats.<\/p>\n

Natalia Gherman, executive director of the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED), told the council that the challenges posed by ISIS \u201cremain complex.”<\/p>\n

Gherman cited the dire conditions for over 40,000 individuals in camps and detention facilities in Syria, and reported overcrowding, inadequate shelter, and limited access to water and sanitation.<\/p>\n

She warned that ISIS remains “agile, taking advantage of ongoing conflicts and regions experiencing growing instability.”<\/p>\n

Noting the expanding financial hubs used by ISIS affiliates, she called for a prevention-centered approach “grounded in respect for human rights and with regional cooperation as the linchpin.”<\/p>\n

“CTED, working alongside member states and other UN entities, remains committed to ensuring that our actions are responsive to emerging challenges,” she said.<\/p>\n
