Eyes on Jihadism. Monitoring Jihadist Propaganda #122
From 9 to 15 July
A newsletter that collects the main propaganda of jihadist organisations and groups from 9 to 15 July in a single publication.
Individual organisations will break down the propaganda:
In the case of al-Qaeda (AQ) and the Islamic State (IS), the central leadership, official branches and provinces will be included.
Then, independent jihadist groups, which have alliances and relations with other jihadist groups but which have independent operations and propaganda, will be included.
Finally, there are the jihadist tactical groups.
This issue contains all the primary propaganda material:
Al-Qaeda:
(AQAP, JNIM, Al-Shabaab)
Islamic State (IS):
(1 issue al-Naba, IS official media)
Independent Jihadist Groups
(Ittehad-ul-Mujahideen Pakistan, Jaish al-Adl).
I would like to remind all readers to access the app or the site, as the email does not allow you to view the entire analysis, and not all photos are displayed.
