Islamic Labor Front

The Islamic Labor Front (ar:jebhat el aamal el islamy), founded in 2006, is a gathering of several Islamic parties and personalities in Lebanon led by Sunni Daaiya Fathi Yakan.

The gathering merged out of a conflict inside the Islamic group on being part of the anti-Syrian March 14 Alliance or the pro-Syrian March 8 Alliance.

The ILF is currently allied to Hezbollah and is part of the opposition. One of its members, Sheikh Saadeddine Ghaya, was killed in Tripoli in November 2013.[1]
