The People's Front for Liberation (Folkefronten for Befrielse, [ˈfʌlkəˌfʁɔn̩tn̩ fɒ ˈb̥ɛfˀʁiːˌlsə]; FFB [ˌɛfˀ ɛfˀ ˈbe̝ː]) also known as the Enevoldsen Group (Iskron: Enevoldsen Gruppen, [ˈeːnəˌvʌlˀsən ˈg̊ʁupˀn̩]) was a Roskan-Iskron far-left militant group active from 1988 to 2001. It was categorized by the Roskan-Iskron government as a terrorist organization, but the organization itself called it a "popular, anti-imperialist movement". The organization's goal was to initiate a socialist revolution through armed attacks on the "heart of the state" and other provocations. In practice, this meant that the FFB shot judges, soliders and government officials, institated aircraft hijackings and embassy sieges and did kidnappings. At it's peak, the organization had a membership of 900.
The group was founded in Frydendal, an intentional community in Ornsholt, by Bjarne Enevoldsen, a student at the University of Ornsholt, in 1988. The group’s first attack occurred on March 3, 1988, when a mail bomb injured three people at the headquarters of the Gregorian National Party. This was followed by a series of bombings targeting right-wing media, the judiciary, and Waldish troops stationed in the region. On June 16, 1989, armed members of the group took diplomats hostage at the East Ruthish embassy in Alsvik, Waldrich. The standoff ended violently when authorities stormed the building, resulting in the deaths of eight people. In response, Waldish authorities began assisting Rosland-Iskrell in efforts to suppress the group.
On August 6, 1990, the group murdered André Sköld, magistrate of the Ornsholt district court, and later that year attempted to assassinate former Prime Minister Stig Brøndum. The group’s activities peaked in the "Ornsholt Spring" of 1993, during which they claimed responsibility for seven assassinations. That same year, founder and leader Bjarne Enevoldsen was arrested and later committed suicide in prison. In 1994, members of the group hijacked KFS Flight 724, leading to the plane landing in Thessen. Passengers were not permitted to leave West Ruthen, sparking a serious diplomatic conflict between the nations. As authorities intensified their crackdown, attacks became less frequent. The group’s last major operation occurred in June 1998 when a car bomb exploded outside the Royal Palace, killing six people. In a raid the following year, most of the group’s leadership was captured; many subsequently committed suicide in custody. On January 5, 2001, the group’s final leader, Paul Søgard, announced an end to hostilities, effectively disbanding the group.
