General Damane Zakaria, the head of the UFDR

Union of Democratic Forces for Unity (Template:Lang-fr, UFDR) is a rebel group which fought against the government in the Central African Republic Bush War. The Central African Republic has accused the UFDR of being backed by the government of Sudan.

On April 13, 2007, a peace agreement between the government and the UFDR was signed in Birao. The agreement provides for an amnesty for the UFDR, its recognition as a political party, and the eventual integration of its fighters into the army.[1]

In February 2022, Zakaria Dramane, founder of the Union of Democratic Forces for Unity (UFDR) and ex-Séléka member was "massacred by Russian mercenaries". This is indicated by a press release from the Patriotic Rally for the Renewal of the Central African Republic (RPRC).
