Peter Mimi, the director of the series, announced on Tuesday that Karara is set to appear again in the series in Episode 23 as he did at the beginning of the production.

El-Mansy was the commander of Sa’ka Forces (Thunderbolt Forces) battalion 103, who was martyred with several other members of his battalion on July 7th, 2017. They were killed during clashes between Egyptian army forces and militants in a terror attack launched on an Egyptian armed forces checkpoint in Rafah, North Sinai.

The series will be the first time to present the life of the commander in artistic work.
