Abstract:

Harakaat al-Shabaab al-Mujaahidiiin, or al-Shabaab as Somalia's terror group is generally known, is now a regional organisation with operatives in six East African countries. If not stopped, the group that started as an al-Qaeda affiliate will start exporting terror to elsewhere in Africa and provide fighters to other global terror organisations.
