Abu Nasir (alleged terrorist)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Abu Nasir (d June 10, 2006) is an Islamic terrorist killed in combat in Pakistani Waziristan on June 10, 2006.[1] A June 11, 2006 article in Al Jazeera described abu Nasir as "an insurgent commander", and said he was an Arab. It reported that twenty-two of the other men killed in the attack were Arabs, and that seven local Pakistani fighters and three Uzbeks.

The blog site Security watchtower identifies abu Nasir as an Egyptian.[2]

Fahd Muhammed Abdullah Al Fouzan remains in extrajudicial detention in the Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba, because he is alleged to have attended a "Abu Nasir military camp".[3]
