Editing Red star (section)

=== Armed revolutionary organizations ===
In 1970, the [[Red Army Faction]], a [[West Germany|West German]] militant group, used a red star paired with a [[Heckler & Koch MP5]] in their highly recognizable insignia.

In 1994, the red star was included in the flag of the armed [[revolutionary]] [[Zapatista Army of National Liberation]] (EZLN) in [[Chiapas]], [[Mexico]].

A number of communist parties in [[Turkey]] utilize the red star. Likewise, a number of Kurdish revolutionary organizations connected to the [[Kurdistan Communities Union]] utilize the red star in their iconography. Those include the flags of the [[Kurdistan Workers' Party]] and the battle flag pennants of the [[People's Defence Forces]] and [[Free Women's Units]] in [[Turkish Kurdistan]], the [[People's Protection Units]] and [[Women's Protection Units]] in [[Syrian Kurdistan]], and the [[Kurdistan Free Life Party|Eastern Kurdistan Units]] and [[Kurdistan Free Life Party|Women's Defense Forces]] in [[Iranian Kurdistan]].

The [[Iran]]ian Islamist-Socialist militant opposition group the [[People's Mujahedin of Iran|Mojahedin-e-Khalq]] uses the red star with the rifle, sickle and the map of Iran in the background.
