Union of Communist Militants

Union of Communist Militants (, abbreviated EMK امک) was an Iranian communist group. It was led by Mansoor Hekmat. Hekmat founded the group in December 1978. The organization took part in the Iranian Revolution of 1979 &mdash; marked by the creation of workers' councils (shoras).

Because of mounting repression in Iran, the organisation sought refuge in Kurdistan in 1981. In Kurdistan, the organization merged with a Kurdish group of Maoist roots, Komala Party of Iranian Kurdistan. Together, they formed the Communist Party of Iran (CPI) in September 1983.
