- Hassan Al Kontar (born 13 July 1981; Arabic: ???? ???????) is a Syrian refugee who was stranded at Kuala Lumpur International Airport from 7 March 2018 until his arrest on 1 October 2018.
- He is in exile of Syria since 2011, because he refuses to join the Syrian military and could face arrest if returned there.His plight has been compared to Tom Hanks's character in the film The Terminal (who in turn was inspired by the real life story of Mehran Karimi Nasseri who lived at France's Charles de Gaulle Airport for 18 years).
- According to CNN's Becky Anderson, his situation is not "unprecedented" and could become a more common problem for Syrian refugees because many countries will not accept Syrian nationals.
