Union of Iranian Communists (Sarbedaran lit. the head-on-gallow mass) (UIC(S); Persian: اتحادیه کمونیستهای ایران) was a Maoist organization in Iran.

Although it has gone through several ideological changes, it has maintained a general Maoist viewpoint advocating that Iran is not a capitalist society but a "semicolonial-semifeudal" one. In 2001 the UIC(S) became the Communist Party of Iran (Marxist-Leninist-Maoist).
