Malhama Tactical is a private military contractor operating in the Syrian Civil War.[1] The group, founded by a pseudonymous Uzbeki jihadist called Abu Rofiq,[1] is closely allied with Jabhat Fateh al-Sham and its successor group Tahrir al-Sham.[2] Its around dozen members occasionally participate in combat and run guns, but primarily provide training.[1] The company has worked with Ahrar al-Sham and the Turkistan Islamic Party.[1] According to the pro-government Al-Masdar News, its leader Abu Rofiq was killed in an airstrike on 7 February 2017,[3] though his death has been questioned.[4] The group stands in opposition to ISIS.[5]
