#2 From the article: "Sahrawi links much of the events during these periods, as well as the emergence of the Islamic State in the region, to the creation of the current Sahelian al Qaeda wing, the Group for Support of Islam and Muslims(JNIM)." It's hard to keep track of AQ because of the various name changes over the last twenty years. Suffice to say, the Islamists have their own internal struggle playing out.
