Notes

  1. ^ Abdullah I of Jordan, who was Hussein's grandfather and the intended target of the assassination, did die as a result of the assassination.
  2. ^ Although Argov survived the attempted assassination, when he died over 20 years after the attempted assassination, his cause of death was attributed to injuries sustained during the attempted assassination.[39]
  3. ^ The name of the assailant has not been disclosed due to the fact that he was a minor.
