Abdallah al-Hubal (1955 – 16 August 1998[1]) was a Yemeni serial killer.
After killing seven people in 1990 after the Yemeni reunion, he was imprisoned in Aden, but was able to flee for a short time. He was not found until the beginning of August 1998, when he killed a couple and three other people in Bayt al-Faqīh. The latter were, according to the police, witnesses of the first two murders. On 16 August 1998, al-Hubal engaged in a firefight with the police[2] killing one policeman and injuring several others before being shot himself.[3]
