The Kurdistan Revolutionary Hezbollah (Kurdish: حیزبوڵڵای شۆڕشگێڕی کوردستان; Arabic: حزب الله الثوري الكردستاني; the Revolutionary Party of God of Kurdistan) is a Kurdish Islamist political movement and former militant group founded in Iraqi Kurdistan in 1988 under the leadership of Adham Barzani.
After the overthrow of Saddam Hussein, the group was inactive as its fighters felt they had nothing else to fight.
[1][2][3][4] In 1999, the KRH trained militants of the Kurdish Hezbollah of Hüseyin Velioğlu in the city of Soran, Iraq.
[5] In early 2024, amid an increase of attacks by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, IRGC channels claimed that the KRH was remobilising to attack American and Israeli interests in the Kurdistan Region.
[6] In late 2024, there were further reports of the KRH remobilising after more than twenty years of inactivity, although Adham Barzani distanced himself from the claims.
