ISIS Sinai Front: Ansar Bait Al Maqdis

On April 14, 2014 the Court for Urgent Matters officially labeled Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis a terrorist organization. In May 2014, Egypt's general prosecution referred 200 suspected Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis members to criminal court on charges of committing acts of terror. The Egyptian government has accused the Muslim Brotherhood of supporting militant attacks in Egypt but the Brotherhood has denied any such involvement.
