Al-Qaeda Threat After 25 Years

After 25 years since the September 11 attacks, al-Qaeda is no longer the centralized organization that planned the assault on the United States. Its founder, Osama bin Laden, has been killed, and pressure from the West has increased, leading to a decline in its direct influence. With its core leadership fragmented, al-Qaeda's networks have transformed into multiple branch groups operating more decentralically. A significant portion of its current activity is concentrated in Africa, especially in Somalia and the Sahel region, maintaining links with groups such as Al-Shabaab and Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin. Although its capabilities have diminished, it still plans external operations. The organization faces fierce competition from ISIS, which seized large territories in Iraq and Syria after 2014, escalating the rivalry among extremist groups.
