Luttif Afif (1937 or 1945 - September 6th, 1972) was the commander of the group of Palestinian fedayeen, who led the invasion into the Munich Olympic Village on September 5th, 1972 and took as hostage nine members of Israel's Olympic team after killing two members who resisted. He was the chief negotiator on behalf of the Palestinians, who were members of the Black September offshoot of Yassir Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organization. The various pictures of Afif, wearing a white beach hat and a linen safari suit and his face covered with charcoal or shoe polish are some of the iconic images of the 1972 Munich Olympics.
