Liwa al-Haqq (Homs, Syria)

Liwa al-Haqq (لواء الحق, meaning "Right Brigade") is an armed Islamist insurgent group that has been active during the Syrian Civil War in the Homs region.

On 11 August 2012, a group of Islamist-leaning brigades in Homs formed Liwa al-Haqq, which went on to become in the next year one of the most prominent fighting groups in the area. Important sub-units include Katibat al-Furati, Kataeb Atbaa al-Rasoul and Katibat al-Ansar.

In December 2012, Liwa al-Haqq joined with other insurgent groups to found the Syrian Islamic Front umbrella organisation, in November 2013 the SIF was dissolved and Liwa al-Haqq, Ansar al-Sham and Ahrar al-Sham joined the broader Islamic Front alliance.

By April 2014, Liwa al-Haqq had reportedly been weakened in the wake of advances made by the Syrian military in the Homs region.
