The Current State of Counterterrorism: Insights from The Global Coalition Against Daesh

Recent attacks claimed by ISIS-K in Iran and Russia have underscored the imperative to re-evaluate the threat posed by the Islamic State and its affiliates. In order to do so, the Program on Extremism at The George Washington University was honored to host Martyn Warr OBE, Head of the Counter Daesh Communications Cell in the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office, on behalf of the Global Coalition to Defeat Daesh. Mr. Warr assessed the current counterterrorism landscape, emphasizing recent developments and the state of the Global Coalition's efforts to counter the threats posed by Daesh and its affiliates. The event was moderated by Program on Extremism Senior Fellow Omar Mohammed.

To discuss these dynamics, the Program on Extremism hosted a virtual event on April 24, 2024, at 10 am EST.
