Avraham Golan, also spelled Abraham Golan (Hebrew: אברהם גולן), is a Hungarian-Israeli security contractor known as the founder of Spear Operations Group, a private military company (PMC) that conducted high-profile operations in Yemen. His work in Yemen—especially assassination missions targeting political figures—was contracted by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and has led to international scrutiny regarding the ethics and legality of private military operations in active conflict zones.
