The Rohingya Islami Mahaz, (Rohingya Arabic script: روہنگیا اسلامی محاذ) (lit. 'Rohingya Islamic Front'), commonly known as 'Islami Mahaz' is a Rohingya Islamist insurgent group which is allied with the Rohingya Solidarity Organization[3][4][5]

Foundation

The organization was founded in Rohingya refugee camp in Bangladesh. It owns several madrasa in Bangladesh. The organization is reportedly led by Maulvi Selim Ullah.[6]

Insurgent activities

In the middle of 2020, a video was posted on YouTube where it was seen that the Rohingya Islami Mahaz perpetrated a bombing, targeting the Myanmar military. It was responsible for killing of alleged ARSA supporters in Bangladesh refugee camps.[4] Islami Mahaz uploaded a video where they fired rockets on Myanmar.[citation needed]
