The National Committee for the Liberation of Yugoslavia, also known as the Yugoslav Committee of National Liberation, was the provisional executive body of the Democratic Federal Yugoslavia from 1943-1945 during World War II. In November 1943, It was established by the Yugoslav Partisans, a resistance movement formed by the communist party of Yugoslavia led by Josip Broz Tito. The committee was formed in opposition to the London-based Yugoslav government-in-exile led by king Peter II. In 1945, the committee and the government-in-exile merged into the Provisional Government of the Democratic Federal Yugoslavia.
