Weekly Monitoring | ISIS Attacks in Africa Reporting Period: 19–26 July 2025

Syria Monitor for Strategic Research Center has released its weekly monitoring report documenting the most significant ISIS-attributed attacks across Africa between 19 and 26 July 2025. The assessment is based on field monitoring, open-source intelligence (OSINT), and a multi-source verification process.

During the reporting period, ISIS-linked activity was recorded in Niger, Cameroon, Nigeria, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Mozambique. The attacks included coordinated assaults, armed raids, improvised explosive device (IED) attacks, and attacks against military positions and civilian communities, resulting in fatalities, injuries, material damage, and large-scale displacement in several affected areas.

This weekly assessment aims to monitor ISIS operational activity across Africa, identify the geographical distribution of attacks, and analyze emerging operational trends and security developments. It forms part of Syria Monitor’s ongoing effort to provide independent, evidence-based security assessments for researchers, policymakers, and media organizations.
