Controversy Over the Islamic New Year in Mayotte

Is Mayotte harboring terrorists? A local newspaper recently revealed the departure of four men from Mayotte to wage jihad in Syria, passing through France, an affair which has caused a stir on the island.

On October 26 this concern was amplified following the Islamic New Year. The shiite minority provoked strong reactions, especially “war songs” were sung by young Muslims who are declaring their readiness for jihad.
