- Terrorist groups continue to extend their hold on Sahel, a region the size of Europe which lies south of the Sahara. Jihadist incursions happen daily, including terrorist attacks, murders, and raids on villages. The situation is increasingly explosive.
Armies from African nations are struggling to hold ground, which leaves entire areas undefended, and the French have decided to reduce their military support to the region. As a result, local people have been forced to take up arms to defend themselves.
Our team travelled to the centre of Mali, the heart of the Dogon people’s homeland. There we followed the Dan Na Ambassagou militia, made up of a thousand men armed with old guns. They face Islamist extremists who are equipped with Kalashnikovs and rocket launchers. But these “dozo” warriors also rely on charms, amulets and traditional beliefs in magic. They fight in temperatures of 45 degrees, with scarce water and no food. They are the last bastion of resistance for the 300,000 people who still live on the Dogon plateau.
We also visited Mauritania, a country which is leading the way on the fight against terror. We were given exceptional access to the Mauritanian army during an operation led by the GSI, the Special Intervention Groups, which are commando units responsible for tracking down jihadist cells on the Malian border. A squadron of light aircraft worked as spotters, tracing the jihadist vehicles, and then destroyed them as they crossed the border.
Join us on an immersive journey into the growing threat of a jihad without borders.

Why is there always conflicts in North Africa
When you hear the term 'jihadist" you already have an idea why...
Strange tales about Mauritania. I've personally met refugees from Mauritania who escaped chattel slavery there. They described the country as an Islamist dungeon under extremely strict Sharia law similar to Taliban. Racial discrimination against black Africans.
This is a old documentary
Old video
who how old are those wooden rifles? jw
Amongst the armed Dogon villagers in the beginning parts of the video, I spotted some SKS (1945 rifle), Mosin Nagants (rifle from 1891), a lot of milled AK 47s, some Chinese Type 56s with the spike bayonet, a lot of their bolt action rifles look like they from WW1 or older, some old bolt action British and French looking rifles
The best rifles they got in their arsenal are the milled AK 47s, Type 56s and the semi-auto either Soviet or Chinese SKS
Their newest looking rifles appears to be the Chinese Norinco looking underfolder AKs
@@inthendwealldie wow cause some of them really seem like very old wood + a bit of rusty metal along the top, i wonder if those are the 1891 rifles
