Fawaz bin Mohammed al-Nashimi (Arabic: فواز بن محمد النشمي, Fawwāz bin Muḥammad an-Našimī; died June 2004), also known as Turki bin Fuheid al-Muteiry (ترك بن فهيد المطيري, Turky bin Fuhīd al-Muṭīry), was a member of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula and was identified by the group as the 20th hijacker of the September 11 attacks.[1][2] Born in Saudi Arabia, Nashimi participated in the 2004 Khobar massacre and successfully escaped Saudi security forces. He was killed by Saudi forces in June 2004.

On June 21, 2006, a US intelligence contractor in Virginia, IntelCenter, released a 54-minute Al-Qaeda video in which Nashimi justifies attacking the Western World. Several days before on June 13, an audio webpost supposedly from Al-Qaeda claimed that Nashimi was to have been the 20th hijacker on United Airlines Flight 93, but was unable to participate at the planned time.
