Abstract
At the end of 2021, prominent organization in Northern Syria called the Committee for the Liberation of the Levant, in Arabic “Hayat Tahrir al-Sham” (HTS), may be on the eve of a profound change that involves ideological and operational levels. Founded in January 2017 as the successor of Jabhat al-Nusra, the movement has remained, so far, the leading Salafi-Jihadist force in Idlib enclave; however, over the last years it faced a number of internal and external challenges.
