== Role in the bombing == On 7th August 1998, Azzam and [[Mohamed Rashed Daoud Al-Owhali]] drove a truck laden with explosives to the US embassy in Nairobi, where Al-Owhali fired on guard Benson Okuku Bwaku after he refused to open the gates. They then drove through the gates, where Al-Owhali threw a stun grenade at the embassy guards before jumping out of the truck and running away. Azzam then detonated the explosives, killing himself, Bwaku and 211 others.{{Stub}} [[Category:List]] [[Category:Male]] [[Category:Islam]] [[Category:Terrorists]] [[Category:Modern Villains]] [[Category:Faceless Villains]] [[Category:Suicidal]] [[Category:Mass Murderers]] [[Category:Vehicular Villains]] [[Category:Deceased]] [[Category:Image Needed]]
