The Ireibak Ayetpa is a paramilitary organization and former political party that ruled Kanglaitam from 1966 until 1997, when it was overthrown in the Kanglaitam Civil War. The movement still exists, largely based in the mountainous northern region of the country, and it has been the main party responsible for instability and criminality in Kanglaitam.
