🇧🇯 There has been a sharp rise in violent attacks in the areas skirting the WAP complex in #Benin since late 2021.

🔴 The areas have become important for the region’s two main armed groups - Jama’at Nasr al-Islam wal Muslimin (#JNIM) and Islamic State Sahel Province (#ISSP).
🚨 In the WAP complex, the principal aim of #JNIM in engaging with #illiciteconomies is to further their governance agenda.

🏞️ The park serves as a relatively safe route for small bands of #smugglers to transport fuel and consumer goods across borders
