The subject of this episode of RANE's Essential Geopolitics podcast is al Shabaab. Al Shabaab is a Somalia-based Islamic insurgent group active in East Africa. It has been responsible for hundreds of violent attacks in that country over the past few years. And now, amid political instability and a worsening drought, the group could be growing. RANE global security analyst Charles Thorson talks to Emily Donahue about the security risks posed by al Shabaab.
