Africa Defense Forum (ADF)

In the greater Sahel region, the vacuum caused by terrorists and coups have allowed IRGC forces to embed themselves through arms dealers, local militias and Shiite minority groups. The Nigeria-based IMN operates a number of propaganda outlets, including news magazines in English and Hausa and a Hausa-language radio station called al-Shuhada, which translates as “the martyrs,” according to a report by the nonprofit United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI).
