Britain has issued a security alert for its nationals, warning of potential terrorism danger in the southern regions of Tanzania near the border with Mozambique. It also noted that Tanzanian authorities had successfully made a number of arrests in connection to terrorism, but added that many of the incidents were “of unclear origin and may be conducted by criminal gangs.”The alert made particular reference to an October 2020 attack in Kitara villagè in Tanzania’s Mtwara region close to the border with Mozambique, stating that the attack was “claimed” by Islamic extremists operating in northern Mozambique. The latest alert comes about two weeks after a similar one issued for “certain areas in Uganda” following the deaths of three people including a Briton in a “suspected” terrorist attack in the country’s Queen Elizabeth National Park. Do you think that the “issuers” are the “sponsors” of the terror activities ?
