Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine  

Definition

  • In 1969, after a power struggle with his leader George Habash, Nayef Hawatmeh left the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). He and other left-wing PFLP members split to form the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), a marginal group that has nonetheless made multiple small attacks on Israeli targets.
