Fadil Nimani[a] (7 April 1967 – 25 May 2001) was a Kosovar Albanian insurgent commander of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) during the Kosovo War and the National Liberation Army (NLA) during the 2001 insurgency in Macedonia, in which the Albanian population sought independence of Albanian-inhabited areas in FR Yugoslavia and Macedonia, respectively.

A statue has been erected by ethnic Albanian politicians and former NLA fighters at Vaksince in his honour.

Ali Ahmeti organized the NLA of former KLA fighters from Kosovo and Macedonia, Albanian insurgents from Preševo, Medveđa and Bujanovac in Serbia, young Albanian radicals and nationalists from Macedonia, and foreign mercenaries.

[5][6] During the Macedonian insurgency, which began in January 2001, Nimani was appointed the commander of the 114 Brigade of the NLA, active in Kumanovo, namely from Matejče to Nikuštak.
