Pair of Al-Qaeda Leaders Responsible for Deadly Attacks in Africa and Pakistan Killed in Missile Strike

A U.S. missile strike in South Waziristan has killed a pair of Al-Qaeda leaders who are believed to be responsible for several deadly attacks in Africa and Pakistan over the past decade.

The missile was fired by a U.S. drone along the Afghan border and struck the Karikot area of South Waziristan killing three militants. Two of those militants have been identified as Usama al-Kini and Sheikh Ahmed Salim Swedan, both had been on the FBI’s most wanted list for terrorism.

Kini was said to have orchestrated the suicide bombing at the Marriott Hotel in Islamabad in September, an attack that killed 55 people.

According to an FBI report Kini and Swedan, both from Kenya, were involved in the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. Kini is also suspected of organizing the bombing of the Danish embassy in Islamabad last June.
