The delegation was briefed on the key activities of the coalition, and its approach to combating terrorism, which focuses on four main areas: intellectual, media, counter-terrorism financing, and military, SPA reported.
The officials also reviewed the coalition’s publications, studies, and research related to these areas, visited the Situation Assessment Room, which is responsible for monitoring, analysis, and follow-up operations, and studied the terrorism measurement indicators used to analyze and monitor terrorist events and groups worldwide.

Al-Moghedi thanked the delegation for the visit, and praised the significant efforts exerted by Ethiopia in its fight against terrorism.
He said the coalition hopes that Ethiopia will join it and work alongside member states in combating terrorism and extremism.
