Manhal Salama was born on February 24, 1990 in Ma’rin Al-Saleeb village in the city of Misyaf.
He joined the Syrian Arab Army on July 15, 2013 to defend his country, Syria, against terrorist groups. He followed military training then he took part in many battles against terrorists in several Syrian areas. He never hesitated to bravely carry out any task assigned to him, however difficult it was.
Yousef, the brother of the martyr said: “Manhal always repeated the phrase “martyrdom or victory”. On October 21, 2014 he along with his comrades carried out an explosive device attack against a checkpoint for terrorist groups, killing six terrorists in Al-Qaryateen area in Homs countryside. The attack led to his martyrdom on that day.
“We feel that his soul is still among us to teach us noble values and patriotism” he added.
