Trump è sceso a patti con i falchi democratici. Il conflitto con l’Iran si allontana, almeno sul piano militare, ma la guerra assumerà una forma diversa: un’escalation dell’assedio. Si passerà alle operazioni cognitive in Iran, agli attacchi militari e di intelligence contro le infrastrutture. Invece di bombardamenti su larga scala, potrebbe iniziare una vera e propria guerra fredda, fatta di omicidi mirati, attacchi sporadici e operazioni clandestine. Su questo scenario Israele è d’accordo. Non sarà la fine della guerra, ma l’inizio di un conflitto lungo e pericoloso, fatto di alti e bassi, nel quale gli Stati Uniti rischiano di perdere progressivamente la propria influenza. Nessun servizio di intelligence conosce davvero la profondità dell’economia iraniana, né può stabilire con certezza quanto il Paese sia in grado di resistere facendo leva sulla propria resilienza. Un Paese che, di fatto, ha resistito alla supremazia militare statunitense, sostenuta dall’intero blocco occidentale. Una potenza militare che non è riuscita a far cadere l’Iran, nonostante una macchina propagandistica occidentale imponente e sistematicamente denigratoria. I colpi di testa di Trump restano imprevedibili: è conosciuto per cambiare le carte in tavola e barare fino all’ultimo momento. Le squadre della diplomazia ombra, che sul conflitto iraniano avevano agito in modo coordinato, hanno scelto di ritirarsi e di non partecipare alle trattative, in assenza di garanzie minime. Hanno lasciato ai vertici dei servizi la possibilità di fare le proprie esperienze, anche se le negoziazioni si sono rivelate tutte fallimentari. Il problema è che molti uomini dell’intelligence hanno imparato a negoziare in tempo di pace, ma conoscono la guerra soltanto attraverso i salotti diplomatici. Al fronte, invece, devi confrontarti con il male e con il bene, e soprattutto devi fare delle scelte. Chiedere a degli uomini di arrendersi o di scegliere di morire combattendo non è una decisione che si può prendere a cuor leggero. Decidere al posto loro, seduti dietro una scrivania climatizzata, invece, sembra molto più semplice. Chissà perché, in Europa e nel nostro mondo cosiddetto civilizzato, finiamo sempre per morire dentro una latrina, ammazzati da una prostituta, mentre i nostri nemici muoiono combattendo. Il destino dell’Europa è segnato dal tradimento di funzionari delle istituzioni che avevano giurato fedeltà, ma che hanno barattato la vita di milioni di imprese e cittadini per la propria mediocrità. Sono loro ad aver scelto di arrendersi, ma senza avere nemmeno il coraggio di chiedere a chi avrebbe dovuto affrontare le conseguenze quale fosse la propria scelta. Nelle situazioni più difficili, un generale deve avere il coraggio di guardare i suoi uomini negli occhi e chiedere: «Volete continuare a combattere, anche a costo di morire, oppure scegliamo di arrenderci e resistere in un altro modo?». Nella storia, ci sono soldati che hanno scelto di combattere, consapevoli del sacrificio che li attendeva. Oggi, invece, a milioni di cittadini, lavoratori e imprenditori nessuno ha chiesto nulla. Una classe dirigente mediocre ha deciso al posto loro, barattando il loro futuro e il loro destino. Non per proteggerli, ma per paura di dover affrontare essa stessa il sacrificio. È facile decidere sulla pelle degli altri quando non si ha il coraggio di mettere in gioco la propria.

Mantovano è impegnato in una partita tutta sua: il grande rimpasto all'interno dell'intelligence italiana. In un apparato dove regna ormai una confusione totale tra analisi, operazioni e narrative, il sottosegretario sembra essersi ritagliato il ruolo di stratega, giocatore e arbitro. Peccato che la partita gli sia ormai sfuggita di mano. Il timore di perdere le elezioni, però, impone una certa prudenza: bisogna sistemare gli amichetti nei posti chiave, blindare le proprie posizioni e prepararsi al dopo. Non si sa mai. A furia di leggere rapporti riservati, il sottosegretario deve aver finito per immedesimarsi nel protagonista di un film di spionaggio. Ormai si sente James Bond, solo che al posto di 007 ha il numero di protocollo e al posto delle missioni segrete deve occuparsi del rimpasto degli amici. Ma c'è anche un'altra questione che dovrebbe togliere il sonno ai palazzi del potere: le elezioni. I sondaggi continuano a indicare Fratelli d'Italia in testa, ma fermarsi ai numeri delle rilevazioni sarebbe un errore. C'è una variabile che spesso viene sottovalutata: l'affluenza alle urne. Il caso serbo dovrebbe insegnare qualcosa. Anche Aleksandar Vučić disponeva di un consenso significativo nei sondaggi, ma la mobilitazione elettorale e l'elevata partecipazione hanno acceso i campanelli d'allarme. Avere i numeri sulla carta è una cosa, affrontare un elettorato che decide di mobilitarsi in massa è un'altra. E se accadesse anche in Italia? Il referendum ha dimostrato che, quando una questione riesce a mobilitare i cittadini, l'affluenza può cambiare completamente il quadro politico. Non bisogna quindi dare per scontato che i risultati delle prossime elezioni siano già scritti. Il vero interrogativo non è soltanto quanti voti raccolga oggi Fratelli d'Italia nei sondaggi, ma quanti italiani decideranno di presentarsi alle urne. Perché i sondaggi fotografano un momento, mentre il voto racconta un'altra storia. E se gli italiani decidessero di andare in massa a votare, come accaduto con il referendum, qualcuno potrebbe scoprire che i numeri su cui contava non erano poi così rassicuranti. A quel punto, forse, anche il grande stratega di Ginosa dovrebbe interrompere le sue partite nell'intelligence e tornare a occuparsi della realtà. Più che il regista dell'intelligence, il direttore del casting! Le elezioni non si vincono nei sondaggi. Si vincono nelle urne.

Gli attacchi ai sistemi di refrigerazione non sono altro che lo sfruttamento di vulnerabilità informatiche presenti da anni. Le aziende non hanno mai voluto investire adeguatamente negli aggiornamenti, preferendo continuare a lucrare su sistemi obsoleti. Oggi, con l'avvento dell'intelligenza artificiale, queste vulnerabilità possono essere trasformate più facilmente in "attacchi informatici". E mentre il settore degli armamenti continua a evolversi, miliardi di euro potrebbero riversarsi sulla cyber-sicurezza. Vedrete quanti politici apriranno fondazioni e società dedicate alla cyber-security. Un avviso alla magistratura: monitorate attentamente questi nuovi interessi economici, i finanziamenti e gli eventuali conflitti d'interesse. È un settore nel quale circoleranno enormi risorse pubbliche.

Before crossing by land between Nigeria and Benin, Niger or Cameroon, check with the relevant border and immigration authorities that your crossing point is open and check the current entry and exit requirements. Read the travel advice for both countries and the regional risks advice for your whole route. An open border crossing does not mean the journey is safe or that FCDO advice against travel no longer applies.

There is a high threat of terrorist attack globally affecting UK interests and British nationals, including from groups and individuals who view the UK and British nationals as targets. Stay aware of your surroundings at all times.

UK Counter Terrorism Policing has information and advice on staying safe and what to do in the event of a terrorist attack. Find out how to reduce your risk from terrorism while abroad.

Terrorism in Nigeria

Terrorists are very likely to try to carry out attacks in Nigeria.

The primary terrorist threat in Nigeria comes from Islamic State West Africa (ISWA) and Boko Haram. These groups are mainly based in north-east Nigeria in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states. In recent years, there have also been attacks likely associated with terrorist groups in the following states: Borno, Gombe, Niger, Kaduna, Kogi, Bauchi, Ondo, Zamfara, Taraba, Jigawa, Sokoto, Edo and Kano states, as well as the Federal Capital Territory.

Attacks could be indiscriminate and could occur at any time, including in places visited by foreign nationals, such as:

• places of worship
• markets
• malls
• hotels
• bars and restaurants
• sports venues and screenings
• displacement camps
• train networks and stations
• government buildings
• educational institution
• international organisations
• large public gatherings
• military locations and venues within them

Take particular care during election periods, or periods of religious significance or other public holidays.

Terrorist groups have also constructed unauthorised vehicle checkpoints on major supply and commercial routes, such as the A3 Maiduguri-Damaturu Road.

A heavy security presence is often a sign of a particularly high risk. Avoid affected areas in the immediate aftermath of an attack. Stay aware of your surroundings, keep up to date with local media reports and follow the advice of local authorities.

Recent significant attacks include:

-

in 2025, 5 people were killed and 35 injured, in an IED attack on Maiduguri Mosque in Borno state

-

in 2025, one soldier was killed in an attack in Kwara state. This was the first time that al-Qa’eda affiliated group JNIM have claimed an attack in Nigeria

-

in 2025, 63 people were killed in a firearms attack in Darajamal, Borno state. Boko Haram are believed to have been responsible

-

in 2025, 16 people were killed in a firearms attack in Morai, Kebbi state

-

in 2024, at least 37 people were killed in an attack on Mafa town, Yobe state. ISWA claimed responsibility for the attack

-

in 2024, 30 people were killed in coordinated suicide bombings in Gwoza, Borno state

Terrorist kidnap

Terrorist groups are highly likely to carry out kidnaps in Nigeria. Kidnappings are widespread and could occur anywhere. Foreign nationals and humanitarian workers have been kidnapped in the North, including in the states of Adamawa, Bauchi, Borno, Katsina, Kano and Kebbi. There may be an increased risk of terrorist kidnap, particularly to NGO workers, in Borno State.

British nationals are seen as legitimate targets, including tourists, humanitarian aid workers, journalists and business travellers. If you are kidnapped, the reason for your presence is unlikely to protect you or secure your safe release.

The long-standing policy of the British government is not to make substantive concessions to hostage takers. The British government considers that paying ransoms and releasing prisoners builds the capability of terrorist groups and finances their activities. This can, in turn, increase the risk of further hostage-taking. The Terrorism Act (2000) makes payments to terrorists illegal.

When arranging meetings, use a secure location. Avoid regular patterns of travel and aim to only travel during daylight hours.

Street and vehicle crime

Levels of violent crime are high throughout Nigeria, including muggings, armed robbery, carjacking and kidnap.

There are frequent reports of armed robbery, carjacking and kidnap on roads across Nigeria. Risks can be higher outside major urban areas and when travelling at night.

The Nigerian authorities, including the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), have highlighted the risks associated with road travel at night. Travelling after dark can increase exposure to both security and road safety risks.

Criminals may target foreign nationals, including British nationals, due to their perceived wealth. Follow the advice of your host, employer or local contacts and considerlimiting unnecessary road travel after dark.

Limit the amount of cash you carry and keep valuable items such as watches and jewellery out of sight. Stay aware of your surroundings and keep your belongings secure.

If you are the victim of an armed robbery, comply with the attackers’ demands and do not resist.

Withdrawing and exchanging money

Criminals may target people withdrawing cash from banks and ATMs. Take extra care when withdrawing money, particularly after dark.

Credit card fraud is common. Always keep your card within sight when making payments and regularly check your account for unauthorised transactions.

Financial scams

British nationals are frequently targeted by scammers operating in West Africa. Scams can take many forms, including romance and friendship scams, fraudulent business opportunities, investment schemes, inheritance claims and fake job offers.

Be cautious if you receive unsolicited requests for money, investment opportunities or employment offers. Be wary of anyone you have only met online and avoid sending money or sharing personal or financial information with people you do not know.

If you are asked to transfer money to Nigeria on behalf of someone claiming to be a friend or relative, contact them using a trusted method to confirm the request is genuine.

If someone contacts you claiming to be a British national in distress in Nigeria and requesting financial assistance, verify their identity independently.

Scammers sometimes impersonate the British High Commission or other UK government organisations. If you receive a suspicious message claiming to be from the British High Commission in Nigeria, contact the High Commission directly using contact details published on GOV.UK or the British Deputy High Commission in Lagos. Please report any scams to Action Fraud.

For more information on common scams and how to protect yourself, see GOV.UK guidance on avoiding and reporting internet scams and phishing

Surrogacy and fertility treatment

If you’re considering fertility treatment or surrogacy options in Nigeria, exercise caution. There have been reports of staged fake births, commonly referred to as ‘miracle babies’, where visitors are falsely led to believe that a birth has taken place.

Regulation of fertility treatment and surrogacy services in Nigeria is weak, and legal protections for intended parents and surrogates may be limited. There have also been reports of legal disputes involving international surrogacy arrangements in both Nigerian and English courts.

If you plan to bring a child born through fertility treatment or surrogacy in Nigeria to the UK, make sure you understand the relevant UK immigration and health requirements. See Guidance on surrogacy overseas.

Overseas Adoption

The UK has restricted overseas adoption of children from Nigeria. If you bring a child who is not biologically related to you into the UK without following the legal procedures, you could face prosecution and the child may not be eligible for British citizenship.

Kidnapping for ransom

There is a high threat of kidnapping across Nigeria. Kidnappings happen in both rural and urban areas, including on roads between towns and cities. British nationals could be targeted, including people travelling for work or visiting friends and relatives.

The threat varies by location. Armed criminal groups carry out kidnappings in the north-west and north-central regions. There is also a high threat of kidnapping by terrorist groups in the north-east. However, kidnappings are not limited to these areas. Incidents also occur in southern Nigeria and the outer suburbs of Abuja.

Read the regional risks advice for your destination and any areas you plan to travel through.

Before travelling by road:

-

check current security conditions along your whole route

-

use trusted transport providers

-

plan journeys to arrive before dark

-

vary your routes and routines where possible

-

keep up to date with local security information and follow the advice of local authorities

Do not assume that major roads are safe. Travelling during daylight does not remove the risk of kidnapping.

In the Niger Delta, there is a risk of kidnapping and armed attacks, including people working at oil and gas facilities and offshore installations. If you are travelling for work, check that your employer has appropriate security arrangements and emergency plans.

Kidnappers may target people they believe can pay a ransom, or whose relatives or employers can pay. Criminal groups may transfer hostages to terrorist organisations. Read the ‘Terrorist kidnap’ advice alongside this section.

Vary your routines and arrange meetings in secure locations. Keep up to date with local security information and follow the advice of local authorities.

Check FCDO’s travel advice before making arrangements and again before travelling. Security precautions do not make it safe to travel to areas where FCDO advises against travel.

Methanol poisoning

There have been deaths and cases of serious illness caused by alcoholic drinks containing methanol in Nigeria.

Where incidents have been reported, Nigerian authorities have sought to shut down production centres, particularly for unlicensed traditional gin. Avoid drinking unlicensed products.

Even small amounts of methanol can kill. It is not possible to identify methanol in alcoholic drinks by taste or smell. See Travel Aware Spiking and methanol poisoning for information about how to reduce the risks.

Seek urgent medical attention if you or someone you are travelling with show the signs of methanol poisoning after drinking.

Road travel in Nigeria can be dangerous due to poor road conditions, low driving standards and vehicles that are not roadworthy. Kidnapping, armed robbery and attacks on vehicles are also a risk. Read the regional risks advice for your destination and any areas you plan to travel through.

If you plan to drive in Nigeria, read the information on driving abroad. Serious and fatal road collisions are common. Traffic congestion, particularly in Lagos, can cause long delays. Allow extra time for journeys and carry a charged mobile phone and bottled water.

You can drive in Nigeria with a UK driving licence for up to 3 months. Make sure your licence is valid and renew or update it if necessary. The minimum legal driving age is 18.

If you stay longer than 3 months, you will need a 1968 international driving permit (IDP). For stays of more than a year, you will need a Nigerian driver’s licence.

Plan journeys outside city centres to arrive before dark and use well-lit busier roads where possible. Travelling in daylight does not remove the risk of kidnapping or armed robbery. Keep doors locked, windows closed and valuables out of sight. Stay alert in traffic jams and at traffic lights. If you think you are being followed, drive to a place of safety, such as a police station.

Before travelling outside cities, get current local advice on road and security conditions along your whole route. Use a trusted transport provider and check that the vehicle is roadworthy. Do not assume that travelling on major roads or in a convoy will keep you safe. Follow local restrictions and the advice of the authorities.
