[US.CNN] The terrorist behind the 2000 attack on the USS Cole is believed to have been killed in a US ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... on Tuesday, according to a US administration official. Jamel Ahmed Mohammed Ali al-Badawi
The official said all intelligence indicators show al-Badawi was killed in a strike in Yemen as a result of a joint US military and intelligence operation. US officials told CNN that the strike took place in Yemen's Ma'rib Governorate. While US Central Command, which oversees military operations in the region, later confirmed that al-Badawi was targeted in a strike, a front man said the US was still assessing the results. "US forces conducted a precision strike Jan. 1st in the Marib governate ...the site of what is believed to be the biblical kingdom of Sheba... , Yemen, targeting Jamal al-Badawi, a legacy al Qaeda operative in Yemen involved in the USS Cole bombing," US Navy Capt. Bill Urban, a front man for Central Command, told CNN in a statement. "US forces are still assessing the results of the strike following a deliberate process to confirm his death," he added. The administration official said that al-Badawi was struck while driving alone in a vehicle and that the US assessed there was not any collateral damage. | |
