Salem El-Masri - Life

Life

El-Masri was believed by Jamal al-Fadl to have trained with Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon, before finding himself attached to the Egyptian militant movement led by Ayman al-Zawahiri.

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.

According to a testimony by Jamal al-Fadl he taught the proper use of explosives in the Jihad Wahl training camp.

Jamal al-Fadl testified in 2001 that he had seen el-Masri at the Al-Damazin Farms. 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.
