Organization:notes | JMA is a jihadist militant group operating primarily in the Aleppo area of northern Syria. The goal of JMA is to topple Syrian president Bashar al-Assad's government. JMA is led by Chechens from Russia's North Caucasus, and the group's membership consists of approximately 1000 fighters, most of them foreign. JMA has taken part in joint operations with other jihadist groups in Syria such as the Islamic State and Jabhat al-Nusra. JMA's tactics include the use of large suicide vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices, ground assaults, hostage taking and kidnapping, including foreign nationals and Syrian civilians loyal to Assad. No incidents have been claimed or attributed to JMA distinctly since 2013. However, in the past decade, JMA fighters participated in attacks that were claimed by other terrorist entities, such as IS. JMA fighters, now under the name of Liwa Muhajirin Wal-Ansar (LMA) are still active in Latakia, Aleppo, and Idlib, targeting Syrian regime forces. | ca_listed_terrorists | ca-lte-40-jaysh-al-muhajirin-wal-ansar-jma | ||||
