The Free Homeland Forces (Arabic: قوات الوطن الحر, romanized: al-Quwwat al-Watan al-Hu'r), also known as the Popular Army in Rafah (Arabic: الجيش الشعبي في رفح, romanized: Al-Jaysh al-Shaabi fi Rafah) is an anti-Hamas Palestinian militant group led by Shawqi Abu Nasira, a former Palestinian Authority officer. His group reportedly operates as part of the Popular Forces and is composed of around 30 fighters. His group is headquartered in Eastern Khan Yunis, though it operates in both Rafah and Khan Yunis. The existence of the group was only revealed in late November 2025, however it has been active since several months prior.
