Adel Omran, a video producer in chaos-stricken Libya for The Associated Press, has died. He was 46. His family says he died while at home in the Egyptian Mediterranean city of Port Said early Friday after suffering a heart attack.
Libya video producer for The Associated Press Adel Omran films an event marking Libyan’s Independence Day on December 24, 2021 in Tripoli, Libya. Omran died Friday, Oct. 27, 2023 at 46 years old after suffering a heart attack in Port Said, Egypt. Omran led AP’s video coverage of the uprising that turned into a prolonged civil war in Libya. He is remembered by many as a talented and caring colleague.
“During a difficult period in the country’s history, Adel was able to network and establish contacts and stringers across Libya,” said Derl McCrudden, AP’s vice president and head of global news production. “He also had a competitive desire to get the story out and this was a great combination.” Omran is remembered for his resounding laugh and his constant willingness to help others, often stepping outside the scope of his own job to help a colleague out. In the unpredictable and often dangerous landscape of Libya, he navigated his way among the country’s many powerbrokers with ease.
