Lieutenant Saeb Sabry al-Safi al-Arkoub (1936-1959) was one of the Iraqi pilots who participated in the Shawaf coup in 1959 against Prime Minister Abdul Karim Qassem.[1][2][3]
Saeb Sabry al-Safi was born in 1936, after 14 July Revolution, many parties in Iraq fought against each other, and that led to attempt coup d'état in March 1959, known as the Mosul uprising. Al-Safi participated in that coup, his duty was to bomb Radio Baghdad on March 8. The raid was a failure, with the planes doing little damage. On his return to the airbase he realised that the coup had failed, so he attempted to flee to Syria. His plane however ran out of fuel and upon landing he committed suicide rather then being captured.[4]
