The Amhara Fano National Movement (Amharic: የአማራ ፋኖ ብሔራዊ ንቅናቄ; AFNM) is an ethno-nationalist Amhara militia group fighting against the Ethiopian National Defense Force (ENDF) and its allies to overcome the threats to the Amhara people. AFNM is a unified political and military organization officially established on 17 January 2026. It was formed to merge various decentralized Fano factions—primarily the Amhara Fano National Force and the Amhara Fano Popular Organisation—under a single command structure and ideological framework.
