History[]
Leo Fitz's Investigation[]
Tangier in 2015
During his search for answers after Jemma Simmons was swallowed by the Kree Monolith, S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Leo Fitz traveled to Tangier to meet with Yusef Hadad, a broker who happened to be in possession of an old artifact that could enlighten Fitz regarding the Monolith's nature. Fitz took a taxi down to an infamous part of Tangier, and as they arrived, his driver warned him that it was a dangerous place. Fitz understood that the driver would not go with him and instructed him to wait not too far away.

Fitz then met with Hadad's men and asked to see their leader. Although initially reluctant, they put a hood on his face and took him to Hadad's headquarters, where Fitz offered to give them a case of Splinter Bombs in exchange for the scrolls he was looking for. Once Hadad produced the scroll, Fitz opened the case, enabling Hadad to grab one of the bombs. However, Fitz had replaced them with decoys that caused a massive flash of light, blinding Hadad and his men.
Taking advantage of the distraction, Fitz quickly seized the scroll he had come for and fled, chased by Hadad's men who fired at him. He then stole the car of the taxi driver and quickly drove away while Hadad and his men still attempted to kill him. Fitz was later able to leave Tangier unharmed and returned to the Playground.[1]
Attack on the Red Dust Cell[]
In 2016, a duo of Black Widows, Yelena Belova and Ingrid, were sent to Tangier on a mission to retrieve vials of Red Dust from the former Widow Oksana, who had defected from the Red Room. During the mission, Oksana was stabbed by Belova but managed to release the Red Dust on her former ally, setting her free from her brainwashing.[2]
