00:00 We're relatively peaceful.
00:03 Of course, there are problems in terms of peace and security.
00:08 This is a remnant of what happened in 2017.
00:11 And there's an ongoing military operation against the remnants.
00:20 Remember, ISIS is not a homegrown terrorist organization.
00:25 This is an important ideology.

00:37 Because they've been, you know, I don't know how the military is handling this, but I'm
00:41 pretty sure they know exactly how the funds are coming in.
00:45 In fact, just recently, they caught one of the people handling, I think, the finances

01:29 City.

01:35 Thank you.
01:35 Thank you.
