Fahd bin Turki Al Saud (born August 1959) is a Saudi Arabian prince and military officer who served as the commander of the Saudi-led coalition joint forces operating in Yemen. He was relieved from his position and forced into retirement upon a royal decree issued on 31 August 2020.[1] In June 2021, he was said to have been sentenced to death over an alleged coup attempt.[2]
