Hussein Darbouk

Hussein Darbouk was a Libyan military officer and rebel figure during the First Libyan Civil War. He defected to the anti-Gaddafi rebel forces during the first phases of the civil war, and commanded the rebel forces in the First Battle of Zawiya against Gaddafi's forces.

On 4 March, Alaa al-Zawi, an activist in the city of Zawiya announced that the commander of the rebel forces in the city — Hussein Darbouk — was killed in action from an anti-aircraft gun as the Libyan Army's Khamis Brigade bombarded the city's western edges with mortars, heavy machine guns, tanks and anti-aircraft guns, fighting armed residents and defected military units.
