SUMMARY

Levant Front was formed on 25 December 2014, as a coalition of the biggest rebel factions in Aleppo: the Islamic Front, Army of Mujahedeen, Harakat Nour al-Din al-Zenki, Fastaqim Kama Umirt, and the Authenticity and Development Front. As a coalition, Jabhat al-Shamiyya split up just months later, on 18 April, reportedly due to internal disputes over funding and the group's broad ideological makeup. On 18 June it was announced that part of the former coalition, particularly the former Liwa al-Tawhid/Islamic Front elements and the Jaysh al-Mujahideen splinter group Kataib Thuwar al-Sham, would continue fighting under the name.
