Ibrahim al-Hamdi (30 September 1943 – 11 October 1977; Arabic: إبراهيم الحمدي, romanized: Ibrāhīm al-Ḥamdī) was a Yemeni military officer who served as the third President of the Yemen Arab Republic (North Yemen) from 13 June 1974 until his assassination on 11 October 1977. During his rule, he cemented the central government's control over the country, and planned to end tribal loyalty and Yemen's medieval social classes by proclaiming all Yemenis as equal.
