The Alliance of Palestinian Forces (APF; Arabic: تحالف القوى الفلسطينية) is a Damascus-based loose political alliance of eight Palestinian organizations.^[1] The Alliance was created in Damascus in December 1993 by ten Palestinian factions opposed to the negotiations that led up to the Oslo Accords.^[2]^[3] Amongst the ten founding members all but Hamas were headquartered in Damascus.^[4] Eight of the founding members were previously members of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), the other two being Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

The Alliance calls for the liberation of all Palestinian lands.^[2]^[3] It has sometimes been referred to as the 'Damascus 10'.^[5]^[6]
