Sergei Mishnev (Russian: Сергей Мишнев, Sergey Mishnev) was a notorious Russian mercenary and terrorist, who dedicated his campaign in tormenting Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs.
He is also the half-brother of the feared Israeli terrorist Ari Haswari, archenemy of the NCIS Major Case Response Team.
Biography[]
Pre-Series[]
The son of a Russian officer, Mishnev's father, Dimitri presumably had an affair with a Palestinian woman, Dr. Hasmia Haswari, who was also a Saudi national and the mother of terrorist Ari Haswari while Dimitri himself was stationed in Israel.
As a result, Sergei was born in 1965 and as such, was the maternal half-brother of Ari due to the fact that they shared the same mother but had different fathers.
Much of Mishnev's past remains unknown but when Sergei was ten years old, his father took young Sergei back to Russia, leaving Sergei's mother as well as Ari in Israel.
Years later, Mishnev attended Soviet university where he met the future Russian Councilor Anton Pavlenko and worked on a sport with him.
After they failed in the event, Sergei parted ways, going for an Afghani opium cartel.
At some point, Sergei also formed an alliance with numerous terrorist groups.
He also presumably later learnt of the death of his half-brother, Ari Haswari at Gibbs's hands when in reality, it had been NCIS/Mossad Liaison Officer Ziva David, who was Ari's paternal half-sister who had killed Ari with Gibbs taking the blame to shield Ziva to presumably protect her.
Grief-stricken, Sergei at some point began monitoring the activities of various members of the NCIS Major Case Response Team as he planned his revenge against Gibbs.
