Terrorism casts a long, wide shadow—crippling economies, tearing societies, and leaving nations to grapple with enormous costs. In this episode of The Morning Brief, host Dia Rekhi dives deep into the costs of terror. Joining her are Thomas Morgan, Chief Research Officer at the Institute for Economics & Peace, who unpacks insights from the Global Terrorism Index, and Dr. Abhinav Pandya, a counterterrorism expert and Founder of Usanas Foundation, who breaks down the funding machinery of terror outfits.

How are terror organizations financed? What role do cryptocurrencies play in fueling extremism? And as nations pour billions into counterterrorism, are we really any safer? 

Tune in for an eye-opening discussion on the monetary, social, and human toll of terrorism.
