The International Revolutionary People's Guerrilla Forces (IRPGF) was a collective of anarchist fighters from around the world. Its formation was announced on 31 March 2017.[1] According to the group, their goals were to defend the social revolution in Rojava in northern Syria, and to spread anarchism. The group announced its dissolution on 24 September 2018.[2]

The IRPGF had been part of the International Freedom Battalion since April 2017.[3][4] Turkish media have described them as a terrorist organization and part of the network of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party.[5][6]
