The Islamic State in Southern Syria [Recurso electrónico] PDF

By: Material type: ArticleDescription: Recurso onlineSubject(s): Online resources: In: CTC Sentinel CTC Sentinel . -- Vol. 8 Issue 11 (Nov.-Dec. 2015) p. 23-29Summary: Much attention has been given to the Islamic State’s military and governance activities in northern and eastern Syria, but there has been less focus on its slow and steady growth in the southern theater. Since July 2013, it has been building a presence in a number of locales around Damascus, with the eventual goal of taking the city. While such aspirations are still far beyond the group’s military capabilities, it has actively rolled out soft-power strategies. Focusing on the Islamic State’s activities in the north and east of Syria could prevent a complete understanding of what it is attempting to accomplish.
