By: Material type: ArticleDescription: Recurso onlineSubject(s): Online resources: In: Terrorism Monitor Terrorism Monitor . -- Vol. XIV Issue 9 (Apr. 2016) p. 3-4Summary: With the emergence of a group in Somaliland calling itself Jahba East Africa, it appears Islamic State (IS) is becoming an independent entity in Somalia’s insurgency. This development will likely complicate the conflict both for the African Union forces in the country and the indigenous al-Qaeda-linked Harakat al-Shabaab alMujahedeen, or al-Shabaab. IS already had a presence in Somalia following a split within al-Shabaab itself, but the extremist group has slowly become more autonomous, supposedly carrying out its first attack in Somalia in April via an unnamed affiliate.
