The Kubani Unit, also known as the Qahaza Brigade, is a paramilitary group and the governing party of the People's Republic of Qahaza. The Kubani Unit formed as a group of armed divisions within the Royal Zalluabed Army in 1994, and which has been commanded by Zalluabedi general Suhaib el-Dar Moussa since then. The group has been noted for its often brutal and aggressive tactics in warfare and suppressing dissent, gaining notariaty in the Hisrea War for its bombardment and seige of Huad. The group came into international prominence during the Zalluabed civil war, when its actions including massacres and indiscriminate bombings of Tuim, Kubani, and Toutmoul gained the organization notariaty. On November 26th, 2023, the group carried out a series of drone attacks on ports across the Tarijar Strait region, subsequently leading to the group's expulsion from the Royal Zalluabed Defense Forces. Days later, el-Dar Moussa declared the formation of the People's Republic of Qahaza. WEDA and the ANS have designated the group as a terrorist organization.
