Nisar Ahmad Ahmadi (died 6 June 2023) was a member of the Afghan Taliban militant group who was made the Taliban's acting governor of Badakhshan province in northeastern Afghanistan. He was assassinated in a car bombing in the provincial capital, Faizabad. The attack was claimed by the Islamic State – Khorasan Province (ISIS–K).

Assassination

Ahmadi was the target of a car bombing in June 2023 in Faizabad, the provincial capital of Badakhshan.
