Nineveh Plain Protection Units

The "وحدات حماية سهل نينوى" (English: Nineveh Plain Protection Units), usually called Nineveh Protection Units, NPU emerged as the armed with of the Assyrian Democratic Movement, when ISIS took Mosul on June 4, 2014: they began recruiting personnel for their soon-to-be organization with suggestions for the name such asas “Christian Regiment” and the “Christian Army.” The official announcement of their existence (https://www.facebook.com/NPU.NinevehplainProtectionUnits and https://ninevehplaindefensefund.org) was made on November 25, 2014. In March 2016 Baghdad approved the Nineveh Plains Protection Units as part of the Popular Mobilization Forces. Militarily the NPU was slated to operate under Operation Nineveh Liberation Command.

Additional military Units in the area of same origin are:
- KDP-backed Chaldean Syriac Assyrian Popular Council created the Nineveh Plain Guard Forces (NPGF)
- The Bet-Nahrain Democratic Party, another party now supported by the KDP, fielded the Nineveh Plain Forces (NPF)
- The Badr Organization, a Shia political party, created the Babylon Brigades. The Babylon Brigades is a pseudo-Christian force. A Christian leads it but the Shabak and Shia Arabs make up most of its rank and file.
