Let us remember that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vaticannews.va\/en\/church\/news\/2023-04\/over-50000-christians-killed-in-nigeria-by-islamist-extremists.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">more than 52,000 Christians have been killed by Fulani Islamists<\/a> in the last 14 years.

To give us an idea, the second large group of terrorist groups, those with communist ideology, totals about 20 criminal gangs.
