Omar Mukhtar (Umar al-Mukhtar, 1862 - September 16; 1931) of the Mnifa Tribe was born in the small village of Janzour, near Tobruk in eastern Barqa (Cyrenaica) in Libya. Beginning in 1912, he organized and - for nearly twenty years - led native resistance to Italian colonisation of Libya. Italian Fascists captured and hanged him in 1931.
