Sirhan Sirhan (militant)

Sirhan Sirhan (died 2003) was a Palestinian terrorist responsible for a November 10, 2002 attack on the Israeli Kibbutz Metzer in which he murdered five Israeli civilians, including two young children. He was reportedly a member of Tanzim, the armed wing of al-Fatah. Despite initial claims to the contrary, he was not related to Sirhan Sirhan, the Palestinian American Christian who assassinated United States Senator Robert F. Kennedy in 1968.

A year after the event, Sirhan was killed by YAMAM during a house demolition.Fact|date=November 2007
