الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله وعلى آله وصحبه؛ أما بعد:

لقد حدثت خلال الفترة الماضية معارك بين أنصار الشريعة وبين تنظيم الدولة وقد كان السبب فيها هو أن تنظيم الدولة قام بأسر مجموعة من أنصار الشريعة وهم في طريقهم إلى الجبهة لمقاتلة الحوثيين بحجة أن إخواننا من ” ما يسمى بالحكومة الشرعية ” وحسب مانشره تنظيم الدولة حينها أنهم لم يعرفوا أن هؤلاء من أنصار الشريعة، وحينها تواصل الإخوة مع “تنظيم الدولة” ليفرجوا عن أسرانا عبر بعض الوسطاء فرفضوا الإفراج عنهم، وكعادتهم في التهديد والوعيد وأنهم ينتظرون أمرا من قيادتهم بتصفيتهم وغيرها مما لا يخفى على كل متابع ومطلع على أسلوب هؤلاء القوم في التعامل مع خصومهم.

وحينها اندلعت معارك مع تنظيم الدولة أدت إلى قتل وأسر عدد منهم، وخلال الفترة الماضية ونحن نسعى في فكاك أسرانا بكل الوسائل المشروعة.

وإننا اليوم ندعوا تنظيم الدولة إلى الإفراج عن أسرانا الذين لم يشاركوا في هذه الحرب أصلا، ونحن مستعدون للافراج عن أسراهم الذين شاركوا في الحرب إلى أي وسيط يرضى به الطرفين.

ونحمل تنظيم الدولة المسؤولية الكاملة عن سلامة أسرانا، ونحذرهم من أي تصرف غير مسؤول تجاه الأسرى.

وإننا نعاهد الله ونعاهد إخواننا المسلمين والمجاهدين ونخص منهم أسرانا في كل مكان (سواء عند الحوثيين أو عند المرتدين أو عند الخوارج ) نعاهدهم أننا سنسعى في فكاكهم ماكان فينا عين تطرف وقلب ينبض، وأن كل يد امتدت إليهم بسوء ستدفع ثمن ذلك عاجلا أم آجلا.. والحرب سجال والأيام دول.

اللهم فك أسرانا في كل مكان، اللهم أنزل عليهم من الصبر أضعاف مانزل بهم من البلاء، اللهم إنا نستودعك أسرانا يامن لا تضيع ودائعك، اللهم الطف بهم وفرج عنهم ماهم فيه.

والله غالب على أمره ولكن أكثر الناس لا يعلمون.

أنصار الشريعة

An Analysis of the Jaysh Khalid bin al-Waleed Military Database

The Islamic State Archives

Introduction

It is with great pleasure that I commence this project of the Islamic State Archives in collaboration with Aaron Zelin by presenting an internal database of military personnel for the Islamic State’s southern Syria affiliate Jaysh Khalid bin al-Waleed(“The Army of Khalid bin al-Waleed”- JKBW).

As an introduction for readers, JKBW was formed in May 2016 as a merger between three Syrian jihadi groups: Liwa Shuhada’ al-Yarmouk (“The Yarmouk Martyrs Brigade”), Harakat al-Muthanna al-Islamiya (“The Islamic al-Muthanna Movement”) and Jama’at al-Mujahideen (“The Group of Mujahideen”). The “Khalid bin al-Waleed” aspect of JKBW’s name refers to the Muslim conqueror Khalid bin al-Waleed, who defeated the Byzantines at the Battle of the Yarmouk, a key engagement that resulted in the Muslim conquest of the Levant in the 7th century CE.

The group’s name becomes understandable when one notes that the formation of JKBW took place in the Yarmouk Basin region…

Eye On Jihadis in Libya Weekly Update: April 9

IS in Action

On 9 April, IS claimed responsibility for an attack on the town of Fuqaha, in the southern Jufra region. Arriving in as many as 15 vehicles, IS cut off communications to the town, burnt down several houses and executed the head of the municipal guard. Three civilians who had been released from captivity in Ghaduwwa were killed in the incident. In their claim of responsibility, IS said the attack was a part of the “battle of revenge for al-Sham.”

On 1 April, the Misrata Security Directorate reported that its Bomb Disposal Unit had disposed of four tonnes of unexploded ordinances (UXOs) planted by IS in east Sirte in 2016. On 28 March, the Mayor of Sirte, Mukhtar al-Madani, met with representatives of the Danish De-mining Group (DDG) to establish teams to inspect former conflict zones associated with the 2016 IS conflict in order to detected UXOs. On 28 March, a Libyan news media outlet published the testimony of a civilian kidnapped by IS fighters late last year and held captive in a ‘prison’ on a farm in the Ghaduwwa area before being rescued by security forces. The individual recounts being taken in vehicles through the Harouj area and stopping throughout the journey to bury mines. The captive identified the leader of the IS group that kidnapped them as being a ‘Yemeni emir’ who has vowed to launch more raids on Fuqaha. On 25 March, the Sabratha Security Directorate reported it had arrested a suspected IS member. The individual is to be prosecuted but no other information is available at this time.

Other Jihadi Actors

On 9 April, unconfirmed reports suggest Abrek Maazak, also known as “Abrek the Egyptian,” has been released from prison and is participating in the clashes in Tripoli. Maazak is a founding member of Ajdabiya Revolutionaries Shura Council, an Islamist brigade formerly linked with Ansar Al-Sharia and the Benghazi Revolutionaries Shura Council. Maazak had been arrested, along with Saadi Abdullah Abukzim al-Noufali, in October 2017 by Misrata security forces. On 29 March, two al-Qaeda members from Derna were reported to have been arrested in Misrata. The individuals are said to have participated in fighting in Syria with Katibat al-Batar.

New video message from The Islamic State: “You Adhere Heavily To The Earth – Wilāyat al-Yaman, al-Bayḍā’”

The title of this release is in reference to Qur’anic verse 9:38. Here it is in full: “Oh you who have believed, what is [the matter] with you that, when you are told to go forth in the cause of God, you adhere heavily to the earth? Are you satisfied with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But what is the enjoyment of worldly life compared to the Hereafter except a [very] little.”
