The Coalition of Political Forces of Iranian Kurdistan—made up of 2,500 to 10,000 lightly armed fighters—recently formed amid reports that the United States and Israel were considering offering support to a Kurdish operation in Western Iran.
The fighters in this coalition are drawn from a variety of armed groups. Participation by the Kurdistan Freedom Life Party (PJAK) is notable, as the PJAK operates from underground bases outside Iraqi Kurdish control. The PJAK’s involvement in any potential operation, however, may be restricted due to its affiliation with the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which is currently engaged in peace talks with Türkiye.
