Francisco Ascaso Abadía (April 1, 1901 – July 20, 1936) was the cousin of Joaquín Ascaso, the President of the Regional Defence Council of Aragon,[1] a carpenter[2] and a prominent Anarcho-syndicalist figure in Spain.

Ascaso lived a life of crime and violence being involved in the deaths of multiple high-profile government officials and as a result frequently detained. By the time of the Spanish Civil War, he had created and been involved in numerous anarchist operations and organizations alongside his close friend Buenaventura Durruti. He was killed during the civil war.
