A leader of Al-Burkan, Ragab Mabruk Zatout claimed to have personally met Oliver North and received support from US intelligence. Al-Burkan claimed responsibility for the assassination of Libya's ambassador to Italy on 21 January 1984 in Rome. A Libyan businessman with close ties to Gaddafi was killed on June 21, 1984, in Athens during the visit of Abdul Salam Turayki, Libya's secretary of foreign liaison. Both Al-Burkan and the Iraqi Sadr Brigade took credit for the 11 September 1984 attack on two Libyan diplomats in Madrid. In 1985, Al-Burkan claimed responsibility for the assassination of the Libyan Information Bureau chief in Rome. In 1996, the Dispatches program on BBC Channel 4 produced a documentary on the shooting murder of London police office Yvonne Fletcher during the 17 April 1984 demonstration at the Libyan embassy. The program alleged that Al-Burkan had infiltrated the building and had shot Fletcher. (en)
