Salem el-Masri
Salem el-Masri (سالم المصري) was allegedly an explosives trainer with Al-Jihad, who worked first in Afghanistan, and then in Khartoum at the Al-Damazin Farms project owned by Osama bin Laden.[1]
Life
El-Masri was believed by Jamal al-Fadl to have trained with Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon,[1] before finding himself attached to the Egyptian militant movement led by Ayman al-Zawahiri.[2]
He was part of the group of Al-Qaeda trainers that included Abu Taha al-Sudan, Saif al-Islam el-Masry, and Saif al-Adel who was invited to go to Lebanon, after Hezbollah consulted with Iran.[1]
According to a testimony by Jamal al-Fadl he taught the proper use of explosives in the Jihad Wahl training camp.[2]
Jamal al-Fadl testified in 2001 that he had seen el-Masri at the Al-Damazin Farms.[2] The Damazine Farm on the outskirts of Damazine City was an al-Qaeda farm that grew peanuts, sesame, and white corn, and which also was used for al-Qaeda weapons and explosives training, and was a base of el-Masri, as well as for other al-Qaeda members from Afghanistan and Sudan.[1]
