A newsletter that collects the main propaganda of jihadist organisations and groups from 1 to 8 September 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.

Al-Qaeda (AQ)
Al-Malahem Media, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), released a statement regarding the humanitarian situation in several countries affected by earthquakes and floods, as well as mentioning the situation in the Gaza Strip.
In the statement, the group said that the Islamic nation is going through “severe trials and calamities”, referring to what is happening in the Gaza Strip with “bloodshed and destruction of homes”, and natural disasters in Yemen, Pakistan and Afghanistan that are claiming thousands of victims.
The group called on Muslims to come to the aid of the unfortunate, considering support “a duty for anyone who can do so”, emphasising the role of merchants and clerics in providing financial and moral aid. The group also attributed the worsening disasters and crises to what it called “corruption of rulers and deviation from Islamic law”.
The group concluded its statement by justifying its fighters who are engaged in the fighting fronts, and explaining that if it were not so, they would stand by Muslims in their difficulties, believing that what they face is a total battle whose dimensions are only understood by those who fight it.
Al-Malahem Media, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) issued a four-page official statement criticising the UN Security Council report regarding any “relationship” or “collaboration” with the Houthis.
The organisation confirmed that it has been fighting the Houthis for some 15 years in Saada, Marib, Al-Jawf, Al-Bayda, Taiz and elsewhere, and that the blood of its fighters has been spilt in these clashes, stressing that the facts on the ground bear witness to this.
The statement accused the Houthis group of submitting to Iran and implementing its agenda in Yemen and the region. It stated that the Shia group had killed scholars, destroyed Koranic schools and imposed its sectarian approach by force of arms, while at the same time serving the Iranian project in the region.
The organisation added that it intends to end the siege imposed on the city of Taiz and other areas and retaliate against those who have planted mines to claim civilian victims, stressing that it “will not betray the blood of the Sunnis and will not join the Houthis”.
The statement stressed that AQAP’s support for the Palestinian cause does not conflict with its ongoing battle against the Houthis in Yemen (who are also supporting the Palestinian cause), calling on Muslims to unite and support the oppressed in Palestine and Yemen and not abandon them.

Al-Andalus Media, al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), released a 22-minute video entitled: “And they did not weaken when he struck them”. The speaker of the video is Abdul Mohsen Abu Jalibib.
The speaker argues that the Islamic nation is experiencing massive waves of growing disbelief and a vicious war against Islam and its people, led by leaders full of hatred and arrogance, who are becoming more and more brutal, tyrannical, and oppressive in the East and West.
The speaker then appeals to the men and youth of Algeria, and invites them to share with their brothers the wounds of their nation and to stand “on the frontiers of jihad' against 'treacherous and infidel” governments.
The video continues with a call to Algerians to “support your religion and take the reins of government in your country. Burn the earth under the feet of these apostates, kill them everywhere".
In conclusion, the AQIM speaker states, “let us give the good news to the Islamic Ummah in general, and to our Islamic Maghreb, and our beloved Algeria in particular, that signs of victory are on the horizon, despite the turbulent waves of sedition and the conquest of the disbelieving and misguided nations against us”.
Al-Kataib Media published a statement by the Al-Shabaab Military Command claiming the attack on US forces at the Kismayo airport. The organisation emphasised that the target was US troops stationed at the Kismayo airport in the Lower Juba region, which is used as the logistics centre and headquarters of the AFRICOM military command. Somalia
The attack reportedly destroyed military equipment and caused the collapse of some infrastructure facilities, as well as the wounding of US soldiers. The Qaedist group linked the attack to events in Palestine, saying it was conducted "in support of besieged Gaza", and blamed the United States for its military and political support for Israel in its ongoing war.
The statement also called on the Islamic Ummah to "make its voice heard in defence of the Palestinian people" and confirmed its intention to continue attacks against foreign forces in Somalia and "allied regimes".
