Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades

The al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades (Arabic: كتائب شهداء الأقصى) is a Palestinian militant group closely linked to the Fatah political party.The Brigades is one of the most active forces in al-Aqsa Intifada. The group targets civilians and is thus a designated terrorist organization by Israel, the U.S., Canada, the European Union, and Japan. Despite the fact that it is named after the Islamic concept of martyrdom and the al-Aqsa Mosque, an Islamic holy site, the group is mainly considered a secular nationalist organization. The group's membership is primarily drawn from the ranks of Tanzim, a militant faction of al-Fatah. Following the death of Yasser Arafat on November 11, 2004, the group announced that they will sign their attacks in the name Brigades of Shahid Yasser Arafat.
