Who are Tahir al-Sham, the assassins of the Russian pilot? (Video)

This terrorist group was part of Al Qaeda, but a year ago it broke up, broadcasts newspapers.net.
The name of this group means “Organisation for the release of Levande” or “Levanda Liberation Committee”. This name recalls the original name of the Islamic State ʹ the Islamic State in Iraq and Levant, as Levanti expands Syria's notion of jihadists' war ambitions.

Tahir al-Sham was created a year ago joining several sausage groups, including Jabhat Fateh al-Sham and Frontin Nusra, where the latter was the Al Qaeda branch in Syria. This terrorist group has become the most serious and powerful terrorist group in the Syrian war in recent months.
The jihadists of this group are more fond of blood and more brutal than members of the Islamic State, but it is true that ISIS's most cruel jihadists have become part of this terrorist organisation. By the beginning of this year, Tarhir al-Sham had 32 thousand jihadists, broadcast newspapers.net.

Their leader is named Abu Mohammad al-Julan, who has even made public his autonomy for al-Qaeda and has also invited his soldiers to fight to victory.

This is his statement about Al Jazeera, who treated him as every public person:

If they had met the Russian pilot alive whose plane crashed on Saturday, his fate would have been more tragic than it was.
