US forces dropped a 7.5-tonne "daisy cutter" on a cave in eastern Afghanistan over the weekend in hopes of killing senior al-Qaeda leaders, including bin Laden. "There were some indications that Bin Laden was in the area when the daisy cutter was dropped," a spokesman said. US forces are now using aerial surveillance to track several groups of al-Qaeda fighters as they attempt to flee the area. Intelligence sources said Bin Laden was believed to be with them. |
