The British daily The Daily Express is raising the alarm: thousands of radicals, backed by Iran, are crossing Africa via Algeria, aided by the separatists of the “Polisario,” to clandestinely reach the United Kingdom.
Iran appears to have found an unprecedented lever to expand its influence in Europe: the migration route deliberately opened by Algeria. This is what The Daily Express reveals in an alarming article, detailing a so-called “migratory jihad” strategy orchestrated by Tehran with the Algerian regime. According to the widely circulated British newspaper, the objective is clear: to infiltrate Europe, through the North African corridor, with radicalized agents disguised as asylum seekers.
At the heart of this infiltration plan is a strategic partnership between Iran and Algeria. The paper claims the two countries have established a collaboration aimed at “militarizing” migration routes. This alarming geopolitical alliance relies on networks controlled by the “Polisario” separatists, who are hosted and supported by Algeria.
Far from being a mere ideological alignment, this connection serves as logistical infrastructure for Iran’s objectives.
Intelligence services cited by The Daily Express report that thousands of radicals have already used these routes to reach the United Kingdom. By blending into migrant flows, these extremist elements aim to destabilize not only British territory but also Europe’s broader security and social cohesion. The phenomenon, until recently underestimated, is now growing at an alarming rate.
This infiltration scenario illustrates an evolution in hybrid threats: non-state groups like the Polisario are being used—under the guise of manipulated causes—to export instability. In this dangerous game, Algeria plays a central role. The vigilance of European democracies is now more necessary than ever.
