3,716 Attacks, 4,593 Deaths

Provide Hope and Healing to Suffering Christians

I shared Tuesday about the tragic numbers of lives taken by radical Islamist groups in West Africa as reported by International Christian Concern (ICC) …

Further details from ICC are just as upsetting:

“Between January and June 30, there were 2,725 attacks in Burkina Faso, 844 in Mali, 77 in Niger and 70 attacks in Nigeria that all led to 4,593 deaths. The recent coup in Niger only exacerbates the situation.”

“Additional attacks in Benin and Togo” are further proof of terrorism’s relentless expansion in this part of the world. But they are not stopping there.

  • “The spread of terrorism across West Africa represents the greater goal of Jihad throughout the African continent and furthermore throughout the entire globe,” ICC reports.

  • “The violence, which has forced 6.2 million people to flee their homes as internally displaced people (IDP) and made 30 million in need of humanitarian assistance, is just ‘a snippet of the horrendous impact of insecurity,’” one regional official says.

Radical Islam’s attacks on Christians and others in this hostile region can be summed up in one word:

Brutal.
