Cabo Delgado is in its fifth year of a brutal insurgency linked to the Islamic State, and there appears no end in sight despite the deployment of troops from other countries in Southern Africa, including our own. Mozambiqueโ€™s northern province has become a byword for terror thatโ€™s seen tens of thousands flee, villages destroyed, and civilians brutally killed. As a new wave of merciless violence crashes over communities, we ask: what's fuelling this seemingly endless reign of terror? Who is funding the insurrection? And just how removed is South Africa from the Islamic Stateโ€™s desire to spread fear and devastation? With experts claiming theyโ€™ve uncovered evidence of high-level training and support from within our borders โ€“ Carte Blanche investigates rumours of local links to IS.
