Operation Afton is the codename for an international military operation in Zalluabed's separatist Qahazar region which began on November 30th, 2023, following a series of drone attacks across the Tarijar Strait and Saint Raneau by the Kubani Unit, led by Suhaib el-Dar Moussa. The mission authorised member states to establish and enforce a no-fly zone over the People's Republic of Qahaza, and to use "all necessary measures" to prevent attacks on civilians, which turned into a bombing campaign by the forces of WEDA and ANS against Kubani Unit military installations and vehicles.
