WHO IS TERRORIST MIHRAÇ URAL?

Mihraç Ural, born in Antakya in 1956, escaped to Syria in 1982 from Türkiye, where he was detained for illegal organization activities. Ural established close relations with Cemil Esed, the brother of then President Hafez Assad, through his wife Malak Fadel, who was related to the Assad family. Thanks to the privileges he acquired, he became a wealthy person in Syria. He worked to ensure the sympathy of the people in the surrounding regions, especially Samandağ district of Hatay, to the Syrian regime.

Following the Arab Spring and the start of popular movements in Syria, Ural activated the "Popular Front for the Liberation of the Sanjak of Iskenderun - Syrian Resistance", which operates on a sectarian basis, in early 2012. In the same year, his son Bedrettin İbrahim Ural started to serve in the Syrian army with the rank of lieutenant.

The name of Ural, who dominated the Keseb and Simple regions of Latakia with the militias affiliated with him, was mentioned on May 3, 2013, in the massacre in which at least 150 people, mostly women and children, were killed in the Sunni villages of Banyas and Beyda on the Syrian coastline.

Ural also played a role in the bomb attacks in Hatay's Reyhanlı district on May 11, 2013, in which 52 citizens lost their lives. In the indictment of the Adana Public Prosecutor's Office, which investigated the incident, it was determined that terrorist Mihraç Ural planned the attack with the intelligence of the deposed Assad regime.

Ural, the leader of the Syrian Resistance Organization, is also among the founders of the THKP-C/Emergency Organization, which was formed by those who broke away from the illegal Turkish People's Party Front (THKP-C), which was established in 1970. Ural was one of the leading managers of the Emergency Group for many years.
