Pay to Access | Al-Shabaab’s Regional Threat to East Africa: A Comprehensive Security Analysis
This in-depth report (33 pages) examines Al-Shabaab’s evolution from a Somali-based insurgency into a persistent regional security threat across East Africa, particularly impacting Kenya, Ethiopia, and Djibouti.
Key contents include:
- An assessment of the group’s current operational strength, resilience, tactics (guerrilla warfare, IEDs, suicide bombings), leadership structure, and territorial presence despite ongoing military pressure.
- Detailed cross-border threats, with risk matrices for each country: Kenya’s high exposure to urban attacks and border raids; Ethiopia’s growing risk of incursions; and Djibouti’s strategic vulnerability.
- Analysis of Al-Shabaab’s self-sustaining financing model based on widespread extortion, “taxation,” smuggling, and checkpoints.
- Broader impacts on humanitarian aid delivery (obstruction, diversion, worker safety), local and regional governance (intimidation, infiltration, parallel courts), and economic development (deterring investment, disrupting tourism and infrastructure).
- Strategic recommendations covering military counterinsurgency, financial disruption, enhanced regional security coordination, protection of humanitarian access, and long-term efforts to counter extremist ideology.
Ideal for policymakers, security analysts, diplomats, aid professionals, and investors seeking a clear-eyed, evidence-based understanding of Al-Shabaab’s current capabilities and the urgent need for a coordinated regional response to restore stability in the Horn of Africa.
