'''Sheikh Ibrahim al-Hifl''' is a prominent figure and one of the elders of the Al-Aqeedat tribe (Al-Ekidat). He is considered an influential personality in the region and is widely recognized and respected. Among his most notable achievements is his ability to foster tribal unity and strengthen tribal cohesion. He has succeeded in establishing a robust ideological framework and promoting solidarity and cooperation among tribal members. However, it is also necessary to consider the negative aspects of this achievement, as it has led to increased tribal isolation and detachment from the broader society.

== Ibrahim al-Hifl ==
Ibrahim al-Khalil al-Aboud al-Jadan al-Hifl is regarded as a controversial figure, given his status as a prominent and influential member of the Al-Aqeedat tribe (Al-Ekidat). Previously, he held no role within his own tribe. His first public appearance occurred in the city of Deir ez-Zor, where he led a tribal delegation to meet with security leaders of the [[Syria]]n regime. This took place prior to the [[Turkey|Turkish]] offensive on the towns of Tell Abyad (in the Raqqa countryside) and Ra's al-Ayn (in the Hasakah countryside) in August (August 2019). During that period, there was widespread fear regarding the withdrawal of the [[United States|United States]] from Syria, prompting some tribes to seek alignment with the "Syrian government." It is reported that in Deir ez-Zor, he met with [[Nawaf al-Bashir]], who commands an armed militia loyal to the [[Islamic Republic of Iran|Iran]].

== Activities ==
Given that Sheikh Ibrahim is an influential figure within the Al-Aqeedat tribe (Al-Ekidat) and holds significant sway in the region, a critical examination of his achievements reveals numerous noteworthy and credible aspects. Among his most prominent accomplishments is his capacity to unify the tribe and reinforce tribal loyalty. He successfully established a strong ideological structure and promoted unity and collaboration among tribal members. Nevertheless, one must also acknowledge the negative implications of this achievement, as it has exacerbated tribal isolation and disengagement from the wider society. A comprehensive assessment is needed regarding his potential impact on society and the balance between preserving traditions and fostering social and economic development.

== Who is his family? ==
Sheikh Ibrahim al-Hifl is considered a mysterious figure who prefers to keep details of his private life undisclosed. He has provided no information about his wife or family. However, a source close to him stated that he was previously married for several years to a woman who remained out of the public eye.

== Presence in Syria ==

Following the withdrawal of [[Trump]] and the departure of U.S. forces from [[Syria]], James Jeffrey, the [[United States|American]] ambassador, sent a message in mid-October 2019 via the Syrian Democratic Forces in Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor to Arab tribes, assuring them that U.S. troops and the international coalition remained committed to protecting them and their territories. For a time, Ibrahim al-Hifl temporarily withdrew from the public scene, yet he maintained close ties with [[Nawaf al-Bashir]]. He later appeared at a meeting with [[Mazloum Abdi]], commander of the Syrian Democratic Forces, revealing that he had remained out of public view for some time.
His first appearance occurred in the city of Deir ez-Zor, where he led a tribal delegation to meet with security leaders of the [[Syria]]n regime. This took place prior to the [[Turkey|Turkish]] offensive on the towns of Tell Abyad (in the Raqqa countryside) and Ra's al-Ayn (in the Hasakah countryside) in August (August 2019). During that period, there was widespread fear regarding the withdrawal of the [[United States|United States]] from Syria, prompting some tribes to seek alignment with the "Syrian government." It is reported that in Deir ez-Zor, he met with [[Nawaf al-Bashir]], who commands an armed militia loyal to the [[Islamic Republic of Iran|Iran]].

Although his cousin, Jamil al-Hafil, returned to the forefront as the leader of the Akidat, Ibrahim al-Hafil continued to play a limited role. It appears that within his tribe, he was responsible for liaising with Iranian-backed militias, tasked with monitoring and identifying hidden locations and recruiting fighters for these militias.
In August 2022, a shooting incident targeting a vehicle in the town of Al-Shuhayl, in the eastern countryside of Deir ez-Zor, resulted in injuries to Ibrahim Khalil al-Hafil and Sheikh Mutasher al-Hamoud, with whom al-Hafil had disputes. Al-Hafil was killed in this attack.
Recent events in the Deir ez-Zor countryside have exposed the extent of coordination between "al-Hafil" and "Iranian-backed militias," particularly given that Ibrahim al-Hafil had previously met with Nawaf al-Bashir, who leads the so-called "Lions of the East," an armed organization affiliated with Iranian-backed militias. A statement issued by al-Bashir prior to the escalation of tensions indicated his involvement in inciting unrest and riots in Deir ez-Zor, as well as his call for attacks and security and administrative sabotage.

== Contact with Iranian Forces ==
Ibrahim al-Hafil's meetings were not limited to security chiefs of Syrian intelligence services; he also met with the commander of Iranian forces in the city. Coordination measures with them were discussed in the event of a U.S. troop withdrawal from the city. In the event that U.S. forces remained, while villages and towns in the Deir ez-Zor countryside were under consideration, al-Sharqi witnessed weekly protests rejecting the entry of regime forces and their Iranian and Russian allies into their areas.

This coordination was part of a broader plan that paved the way for an invasion by the Islamic Republic of Iran across the entire Deir ez-Zor region. At that time, the plan sought to replace departing U.S. forces by relying on "Ibrahim al-Hafil," who was later employed to execute Iran's invasion plan despite the United States' reversal of its withdrawal decision. Notably, Iran established one of its largest military bases in Deir ez-Zor, known as the "Imam Ali Base," located south of Al-Bukamal city toward the desert.
