US killed in Kabul a terrorist who headed "al-Qaida" after all Ben Laden

Al-Zavachiri took an active part in planning this terrorist attack, which resulted in 2,977 people," Biden said. The US President emphasized the role of Aiman ​​Al-Zavahiri in coordination of Al-Qaeda's activities in the world and its role in the focus of attacks against the US. According to Biden, the 71-year-old Zavakhiri hid in the center of Kabul and wanted to restore ties with relatives. "The mission was carefully planned and minimized the risk of harming civilians.

None of his family members were injured, there is no casualties among civilians," Biden said. CNN with reference to sources in the White House reported that 2 hellfire missiles were launched on Aiman ​​al-Zavahiri. Politico writes that the impact was struck by the CIA drone at 6:18 am local time in Kabul, when the leader of "Al-Qaeda" stood on the balcony of his home.

A person familiar with the operation said that it took several days to confirm the murder, since there are not many assets in the United States. " High -ranking Talibi figures knew about the presence of Zavakhiri in the area and this is a clear violation of the Dokhin agreement. After the American blow, Taliba tried to hide his presence and moved to another place of his family - daughter and her children, CNN interlocutors say.

The Taliban Representative Zabull Mujakhid reported that on July 31, an air strike was applied to an apartment building near Sherpur, Kabula. "The Security and Intelligence Services of the Islamic Emirate conducted an investigation, the initial conclusions showed that the hit was struck by the American drone," the Taliban spokesman added.

The senior analyst to fight terrorism said CNN that Zavakhiri could not come to Kabul without the invitation and silent consent of at least a small number of Talibas. The US missile stroke put the Taliban in an uncomfortable position, as they claimed that there were no foreign fighters and al-Qaeda fighters in Afghanistan. "The recent al-Zavahiri statements have shown that Al-Qaeda leader is feeling calm. The question is who will become the successor of Al-Zavahiri," the analyst comments.

The UN believes that the second head of "Al-Qaeda" Saif Al-Adel was in Iran, and therefore the Iranians have to choose between the issuance of a new leader of a terrorist organization or its shelter. The former official of the Afghan government, familiar with the course of fighting terrorism, said Al-Adel had already left Iran to Afghanistan. Al-Zavahiri comes from a noble Egyptian family, writes The New York Times.

His grandfather Rabia Az-Zavahiri was an imam at the University of Al-Azhar in Cairo. His cousin Abdel Rahman Azzam was the first secretary of the League of Arab states. Ben Laden's colleague was the leader of Islamic Jihad in Egypt, he was accused of involvement in the murder of President Anwar Sadat in 1981. "Al-Zavahiri's experience is much more than Ben Laden.

His name has been featured in almost every case concerning Muslim extremists since the 1970s," said one of the leading Egyptian experts from Dai Rashvan's terrorist organizations. The attacks on the United States and their facilities began a few weeks after explosions of US embassy terrorists in 1998 in Kenya and Tanzania, which killed more than 200 people and injured more than 5,000 people. Then there was an attack on US warship Cole in Yemen on October 12, 2000.

Smart terrorists blew their boat, killing 17 American sailors and injuring 39 people. The culmination in Al-Zavahiri's career came on September 11, 2001 as a result of an attack by aircraft on the twin tower of the world shopping center. The US State Department has offered a reward of $ 25 million for information that will help catch al-Zavahiri. We will remind that the UN Security Council on March 17 established official relations with the managed Taliban Afghanistan.
