Komala has their own guerrilla force who's called "Peshmerga" and they've been active as most in the 80s and 90s until they were forced to lay down arms after suffering from heavy resistance from Iraqi Kurdish forces.

Komala underwent secret activities after its foundation 1967 during the Shah's regime and later waged an armed struggle against the Iranian regime in 1979, after Khomeini declared a Jihad on the Kurds in Iran. Komala have been in the terrorist list of Iran since the formation of the new regime and they've carried out several executions of Iranian and Jash kurds who've been working for the government.

Komala was founded in Tehran, Iran by a group of Kurdish university students led by Foad Mostafa Soltani (Kak Foad). The Kurdish university students started to arrange secret meetings and discussed marxist and socialist ideas who led to the formation of a clandestine Kurdish organization called Komala
