Ahmed al-Mane’i was a little-known, but influential commander of a group of fighters that emerged after violence had erupted in the Sinai following the 2013 army coup. They were believed to have been formed around reactivated remnants of the Assembly of Monotheism and Jihad in the Sinai [JTJS; Jama’at Tawhid wal-Jihad fi-Sina’a].1 On Jan. 18, 2014, Mane’i was eliminated in an operation by the Egyptian army in the village of Madiya, in the North Sinai governorate.2
