Any Falcon 10 based in the Middle East?

I just started flying a Falcon 10 recently for a part 135 operator in the USA, and I was curious, for future reference, are there any Falcon 10 or Falcon 100 based in the sandbox that anyone knows of?

A 1900 requires a type rating; a Beech 99 does not. Also, I'm pretty sure Alpine is flying under part 135, not 121.
