Philippine intelligence appears to confuse the various names and lists Hisham separately from “Osama—he is probably the activist known as Abu Ful (also identified as Jafer by Yudha [Pandu]).” See Philippine intelligence report, “TIR on Pandu Yudhawinata,” 5. According to Israeli intelligence, Hisham is in fact Abu al-Ful, and Osama is another senior Lebanon-based Hezbollah operative who “accompanies Abu al-Ful in his visits to Indonesia and Malaysia for meetings with local recruits” in the 1990s and engaged in surveillance in Singapore in 1998. See Israeli intelligence report, “Hizballah World Terrorism.”
