What Wikipedia says

Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen simply known as al-Shabaab is a transnational Salafi Jihadist militant organization. It is involved in the ongoing Somali Civil War, controlling a non-contiguous network of primarily rural areas in southern and central Somalia that some consider a quasi-state.
