Ramzi Nafi or Ramzi Nafi Rashid Agha (Kurdish: ڕەمزی نافیع ڕەشید ئاغا, Remzî Nafî' Reşîd Axa; 1917–1949) was a Kurdish nationalist who collaborated with German military intelligence, the Abwehr, in an unsuccessful operation aimed at undermining British governance in Iraq during World War II in 1943. In exchange for fomenting insurrection against British occupation, Ramzi Nafi was assured assistance in establishing an autonomous Kurdish nation state. There is ongoing debate regarding whether Ramzi Nafi subscribed to National Socialist ideology or whether collaboration with the Nazi regime was purely opportunistic in the pursuit of Kurdish independence. Due to his pivotal role in the failed Operation Mammoth, Ramzi remains an extremely polarizing figure who is revered by some yet reviled by others in recent Kurdish history.
