Al-Suri dead for sure this time. Really.
Interior Minister Aftab Ahmed Khan Sherpao confirmed on Friday the death of wanted Al Qaeda explosive expert Abu Marwan Al Suri, calling it major "achievement" in the war on terror. "It is confirmed that he is killed," the interior minister told reporters after a function during which former provincial minister Haji Ehsanullah Khan joined the Pakistan People's Party-Sherpao.

Sherpao said Suri's killing was a "breakthrough" since he was "explosive expert of Al Qaeda." He neither confirmed nor did he deny a report that Egyptian-born another Al Qaeda explosive expert Abdul Rehman Al Muhajir was killed in April 13 military operation near Miranshah.
If he was an Egyptian, why'd they call him al-Suri (the Syrian)?
