Palestinian Militants in Gaza Split with the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF)
By Evan Kohlmann
The NEFA Foundation has obtained and translated a new statement from the Army of Islam (a.k.a. Jaish al-Islam) in the Gaza Strip -- a Palestinian Islamic militant faction opposed to Hamas -- announcing that it is withdrawing from a mutual agreement with the online jihadi logistical support group known as the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF). The Palestinian faction refused to explain the reasons for its decision, citing its desire to avoid controversy and quarreling between Muslims.
