Anbar Tribal Council

The Anbar Tribal Council (Arabic: مجلس عشائر الأنبار), also called the Tribal Revolutionaries (ثوار العشائر), was an armed group and an alliance of Iraqi Sunni Arab tribes formed in December 2013 in Al-Anbar Governorate during the Iraq war.

The group was formed in December 2013, at the beginning of the Anbar campaign against the Shia government of Nouri al-Maliki.

[6] The group fought in the 2014 Northern Iraq offensive, and its founder and leader Ali Hatem al-Suleiman claimed that the Islamic State only constituted 5–7% of the anti-government forces.

[7] However, he also claimed that his group would not fight the Islamic State until Maliki was out of office and Sunnis were given their rights.

[8] The group dissolved in early 2015, after the Battle of Ramadi, in which the Islamic State captured all of its land and destroyed its manpower.
