Jabhat Ansar al-Din

Jabhat Ansar al-Din (جبهة أنصار الدين, The Supporters of the Religion Front) is a jihadist alliance that announced itself on 25 July 2014 during the Syrian Civil War. The alliance contains three other groups: Harakat Sham al-Islam, Jaish al-Muhajireen wal-Ansar and Harakat Fajr ash-Sham al-Islamiya; it has declared that is not affiliated with any other "parties". The Green Battalion was originally a signatory, but around October 2014 it swore allegiance to the leader of Jaish al-Muhajireen wal-Ansar and was integrated into that faction. The alliance has attempted to maintain neutrality in the conflict between ISIL and other groups.

The groups involved in the coalition have diverse memberships; Harakat Fajr Sham al-Islamiya numbers mostly Syrians from the Aleppo area, while Harakat Sham al-Islam was formed around a core of Moroccan fighters, the Green Battalion mainly had fighters from Saudi Arabia and Jaish al-Mujahireen wal-Ansar was formed by Chechen and other Russian-speaking fighters.
