Radical groups are organizations that pursue extreme political, religious or ideological objectives through violence, terrorism or illegal activities. These groups operate across different regions and ideologies, ranging from religious extremists to far-right and left-wing movements. Their methods often include armed attacks, bombings, assassinations and propaganda campaigns designed to destabilize governments and societies. Understanding their motivations, structures and recruitment tactics is essential for security agencies and policymakers worldwide.
In the context of Jewish and Israeli security, radical groups present significant threats. Palestinian militant organizations, Lebanese Hezbollah, Iranian-backed militias and anti-Semitic extremist groups in Europe and North America have targeted Israeli citizens and Jewish communities globally. Simultaneously, Israeli right-wing radical groups have committed attacks against Palestinians and their infrastructure. These dynamics reflect the broader Middle Eastern conflict and its spillover effects on Jewish diaspora communities internationally.

Our reporting tracks threats to Jews and Israelis, analyzes geopolitical consequences of extremist violence and documents efforts by counter-terrorism agencies to prevent attacks.
