The Barisan Revolusi Nasional Melayu Patani , or Barisan Revolusi Nasional ( BRN ), English: "National Revolutionary Front", is a rebel group in North Malaysia and Patani, southern Thailand .

It was founded in 1963. Since 2017, it has been the strongest of these groups in the region.

Originally the BRN was founded as a broadly territorial organization. The BRN rebelled in southern Thailand and imposed extremely religious values ​​on local society.

The BRN, through its paramilitary wing "Pejuang Kemerdekaan Patani", is the main group behind the killings of teachers in the southern border provinces.
