Ansar al-Khilafah Brazil (Шаблон:Lang-pt, Шаблон:Lang-ar) was a loosely knit and disorganized terror cell and organization that had connections to the Islamic State.[1]

History

The group gained prominence in 2016 after pledging their allegiance to the Islamic State group and threatening the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[2][3] Through Telegram, the group would disseminate Islamic State propaganda in Portuguese, this included the 14 issues of the Islamic State online magazine, Dabiq.[4]

In the same month of the threats, 10 members of the group would be arrested in conspiracy of the threat.[5]

In September 2016, 8 more members would be arrested for their support of the Islamic State and planning on an attack against Brazil, with one of the members buying an AK-47 from Paraguay, 4 more would be under investigation.[6]

In 2018, the group attempted to re-establish itself as a sleeper cell, but all 11 members were arrested after WhatsApp messages between them were leaked to the Brazilian police.[7]
