Ahmed Mohamed Hassan (Somali: Axmed Maxamed Xasan, Arabic: أحمد محمد حسن; born April 1, 1953) is a Somali former Air Force pilot known for refusing to follow his orders to bomb the city of Hargeisa, Somalia's second capital, during the dictatorial rule of Mohamed Siad Barre.

(Agoonyar gaabane) Mohamed Hassan was born on April 1, 1953, in Mogadishu during its period as a United Nations Trust Territory.

He joined the Somali Air Force in the early 1970s, where he quickly made a name for himself as an exceptional and talented young pilot.

As an officer in the Somali Air Force, he took an oath to defend his nation and its people and could not bring himself to bomb and kill innocent civilians.

He flew his Mig-17 fighter aircraft to the nearby country of Djibouti, where he was forced to make an emergency landing on a beach due to fuel shortage.
