  • Syrian Jihadists Signal Intent for Lebanon
    Jennifer Cafarella Backgrounder March 5, 2015 SYRIAN JIHADISTS SIGNAL INTENT FOR LEBANON Both the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) and the al-Qaeda affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra (JN) plan to conduct attacks in Lebanon in the near term. Widely presumed to be enemies, recent reports of an upcoming joint JN and ISIS offensive in Lebanon, when coupled with ongoing incidents of cooperation between these groups, indicate that the situation between these groups in Lebanon is as fluid and complicated as in Syria. Although they are direct competitors that have engaged in violent confrontation in other areas, JN and ISIS have co-existed in the Syrian-Lebanese border region since 2013, and their underground networks in southern and western Lebanon may overlap in ways that shape their local relationship. JN and ISIS are each likely to pursue future military operations in Lebanon that serve separate but complementary objectives. Since 2013 both groups have occasionally shown a willingness to cooperate in a limited fashion in order to capitalize on their similar objectives in Lebanon. This unusual relationship appears to be unique to Lebanon and the border region, and does not extend to other battlefronts. Despite recent clashes that likely strained this relationship in February 2015, contention between the groups in this area has not escalated beyond localized skirmishes. This suggests that both parties have a mutual interest in preserving their coexistence in this strategically significant area. In January 2015, JN initiated a new campaign of spectacular attacks against Lebanese supporters of the Syrian regime, while ISIS has increased its mobilization in the border region since airstrikes against ISIS in Syria began in September 2014.

According to Amnesty International1, in February 2016, more than 4.5 million of persons fled Syria since the beginning of the revolution. Moreover, 4 persons over 5 are women or children (‘’Are we listening’’, IRC 2014). In February 2016, more than 1 067 785 persons are registered as refugees2. Lebanon, the worst-affected among Syria’s neighbours, is now home to the largest number of Syrian refugees per capita relative to its total population, putting a severe strain on the country’s fragile infrastructure, economy, and security. Among the Syrian refugee population in Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley contains the high concentration of refugees, with over 400,000 registered with UNHCR.3 The new refugee population from Syria is primarily living in makeshift tents, or in poor and overcrowded urban areas, and is suffering from poor infrastructure and living conditions, lack of job opportunities, educational exclusion and increased costs of living.
