"The report asserts that, despite leadership losses and expenses that are diminishing its cash reserves, the threat posed by Daesh to international peace and security remains high and has increased in and around conflict zones where the group and its affiliates are active," Voronkov told the UN Security Council on Thursday. The expansion of Daesh is primarily worrying in the context of central and southern Africa, as well as the Sahel region in the north of Africa, Voronkov added. Last year, Russian Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN body Anna Evstigneeva said that the United Nations resolution on countering terrorism must be implemented effectively given that Daesh and other terror groups are present in Afghanistan and are expanding their presence in Central Asia.
