Despite losing territorial control, ISIS remains one of the most dangerous and adaptive extremist organisations operating across West Asia and North Africa (WANA). This Global Eye Intelligence conflict studies report delivers a comprehensive assessment of how the Islamic State has transformed from a territorial entity into a decentralised, transnational insurgent and terror network.
The report traces ISIS’s evolution from its post-Iraq War origins to its peak in Syria and Iraq, and its subsequent mutation into an insurgent force exploiting political instability, sectarian fractures, and weak governance. It analyses ISIS activity across Iraq, Syria, Libya, Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, Tunisia, and Algeria, highlighting how the group leverages smuggling networks, human trafficking, local grievances, and inter-group rivalries to sustain influence.
Crucially, the report examines the human cost of ISIS operations, the resurgence of global jihadist collaboration following renewed regional conflicts, and the broader implications for international security, counterterrorism frameworks, and regional stability. It also outlines future risk trajectories, warning that unresolved socio-political fractures could fuel renewed escalation.
Terror networks rarely disappear—they adapt. Those who track ISIS early understand the next phase of global jihad before it surfaces. Follow Global Eye Intelligence to stay ahead of evolving security threats shaping West Asia, North Africa, and beyond.
