ISIL Activity Is not Funded by Oil, Study Suggests

Caption

This is a dashboard for Ajil -- the dashboard shows data captured by remote sensing for Ajil oil field. The 'energy' activity at the field reflects production before IS took over (July 2014) after which production plummets; the field is taken back by government forces and the March 2015 spike in activity corresponds to IS fighters setting fire to the field; activity resumes in September 2015.
