Al Qaeda and ISIS in Syria

The attack was the latest in a series of attacks in northwest Syria against al Qaeda-affiliated terrorists and senior Islamic State group members in recent years. In recent years, the vast majority of those killed by US airstrikes in the rebel-held province of Idlib were members of al Qaeda’s Horas al-Din branch, whose name translates to “guardians of religion” in Arabic. The group is made up of al Qaeda fighters who defected from Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, Idlib province’s most powerful insurgent organization.

Local activists identified two individuals killed by a drone strike as Horas al-Din members in February. The Observatory later revealed that one of the two fatalities was a prominent member of the Islamic State who was defeated in Syria in March 2019.
