Why are Tajik Young People Turning to Extremism?

Reported about 1 year ago

Grigor Atanesian, a BBC reporter, visited the village of Mahmadsheoy-Poyon near Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan, where one of the suspects involved in the Moscow music hall attack grew up. The article explores how young Tajiks are being lured by ISIS-K in Afghanistan, leading to incidents of extremism involving Tajik nationals in Iran, Istanbul, and Europe. Various factors such as strict religious control, poverty, and historical conflicts contribute to the vulnerability of Tajik youth to extremist recruitment.
