Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa

The Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa (abbreviated MOJWA) was a militant Islamist organisation that broke off from al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb with the intended goal of spreading jihad across a larger section of West Africa, as well as demanding the expulsion of all French interests (especially military and resources) that operated in West Africa, which they regarded as "colonialist occupiers". Its operations were largely limited to southern Algeria and northern Mali.
