National Islamic Movement of Afghanistan

The National Islamic Movement of Afghanistan (Persian: جنبش ملی اسلامی افغانستان‎‎, Junbish-i-Milli Islami Afghanistan) is an Uzbek political party in Afghanistan. Its leader is General Abdul Rashid Dostum. It has been described as "an organisation heavily peopled with former Communists and Islamists," and is regarded as somewhat secular and left-leaning. Its voter base is mostly Uzbeks, and it is strongest in Jowzjan, Balkh, Faryab, Sar-e Pol, and Samangan provinces. In July 2016 Human Rights Watch accused the militia of killing, abusing and looting civilians in Faryab Province during June.
