The State Department revealed in March that Osama bin Laden’s son, Hamza, became the new leader of al Qaeda.
Trump confirmed Hamza perished six months later in a US counterterrorism operation in the Afghan-Pakistan border region. Specific operational details were not disclosed.
Hamza left behind a wife, the daughter of Mohammed Atta, the lead hijacker on 9/11 and one of the masterminds behind al Qaeda’s attacks on New York and Washington.
Good riddance.
