However, three years after the publication of the Israel-Palestinian conflict (Adogaye, 2020), the Laboratory of International Relations and Studies Strategic entrusted me the publication of a special article bearing this time on the sahelian zone, but also the challenges of military interventions in the desert area. This choice to look at the sahelian zone was guided by the concern for making a historical analysis scale on the African desert and the profound changes that have affected it for seven years after the death of the Libyan guide Mohammard Kaddhafi in 2011. The mounted of the Islamic group in this case Boko Haram in Chad, in Cameroon, including the civil war with the creation of the Azawad State (6 April 2012) by the dealer’s denominated departmental dependence.

It is in this logic that our study is located. Make introduction plan by analyzing the challenges of interventions in Chad, in Libya including Mali.
