Province of Sinai

Province of Sinai (also translated State of Sinai) (Arabic: ولاية سيناء, Wilayah Sinai ) is a self proclaimed Wilayat of Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant and a Sunni jihadist group in the Sinai Peninsula. The group was formed when a core group of the membership of the group known as Ansar Bait al-Maqdis gave allegiance to ISIL. A small contingent of the group also operates in Gaza, which has renamed itself to the Islamic State in Gaza.
