An American national was announced as the latest $1 million winner in the Dubai Duty Free Millennium Millionaire promotion at the draw held on Wednesday at Concourse C of Dubai International Airport.
Fakhreldin Eltegane Ali Sabel, an American national living in New York, became the latest $1 million winner in Millennium Millionaire Series 397 with ticket number 0680, which he purchased July 22.
Sabel, who is the 12th American national to have won $1 million since the start of the Millennium Millionaire promotion in 1999, is currently uncontactable but will no doubt be surprised when he learns of his winnings.

Chami, who celebrates his 50th birthday on August 18, was thrilled to hear the news of his win and exclaimed: "What an amazing birthday gift! Thank you so much Dubai Duty Free for this unexpected surprise!"
