Infamous jihadist leader holds meeting with militant group in Idlib
2018-06-11
[ALMASDARNEWS] The infamous leader of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham
, Abu Mohammad al-Joulani, was photographed on Sunday meeting with another myrmidon group in the Idlib Governorate.

According to pro-opposition activists, Joulani met with the commanders of Jaish al-Ghouta in an undisclosed location in the Idlib Governorate.

Joulani allegedly asked the commanders of Jaish al-Ghouta to join forces with Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, as they were previously loyal to Jabhat al-Nusra
...formally Jabhat an-Nusrah li-Ahli al-Sham (Support Front for the People of the Levant), also known as al-Qaeda in the Levant. They aim to establish a pan-Arab caliphate. Not the same one as the Islamic State, though .. ...
in east Damascus.

Jaish al-Ghouta was a jihadist group that was previously active in the East Ghouta region; specifically, the Harasta suburb.

These jihadists gave up their positions in Harasta after an agreement was made to evacuate their fighters to the Idlib Governorate.
