‘Irresponsibility in Iraq's Ba'athist Leadership’: An Insider's Perspective
2023-04-12


Former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein narrowly escaped death during the Gulf War, according to a recent account by Sabbah Nahi, a witness to the events.

Nahi recounted how Saddam and his close associates fled Baghdad as war broke out, with the president frantically searching for a hiding place. "I saw him by chance in Mansour neighborhood in the early hours of that fateful morning," Nahi told Independent Arabia." "He was looking for a smuggler to take him away in two white Peugeot cars that were racing to enter a garage of a restaurant in 14 Ramadan Street in Mansour. That was the moment he disappeared."
