PFLP mourns the passing of Comrade Ahmad Farran in Sweden


The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine mourns the passing of Comrade Ahmad Khaled Farran after a life of struggle in the Palestinian cause.

Born in Haifa in 1948, Ahmad Farran was as a newborn baby forced from his home in the Nakba, the Zionist conquest and colonization of Palestine. As a Palestinian refugee, he studied in Damascus to become an electrician and came to Sweden in 1964.

Comrade Farran spent his life committed to the Palestinian struggle and particular the right of Palestinian refugees to return to their original homes and lands. He passed away after a long struggle with illness in Gothenburg, Sweden on September 28.

The PFLP expresses its condolences to Comrade Farran’s family, loved ones and to the Palestinian community in Sweden, where Comrade Farran was a leading struggler for decades.
