The Tora Bora Military Front is a Islamist militant group in Afghanistan. The group is led by Anwarul Haq Mujahid. The group split away from Hezb-e Islami Khalis due to disagreements between Anwarul and Hajj Din Mohammad.[1] The group promised loyalty to the Taliban in 2016 and has a magazine and website.[2][3]
