The leader of the Al Qaeda, Osama Bin Laden is dead and his body has been recovered by U.S. authorities, according to CNN . According to reports, the U.S. military would have ended the lives of most wanted terrorist in a raid on his mansion on the outskirts of Islamabad, capital of Pakistan.
The U.S. president, Barack Obama, has scheduled a hearing in a few minutes to expand the details of the operation. Osama bin Laden was the most internationally sought after having claimed responsibility for the attack on the twin towers on September 11, 2001 , the biggest attack ever suffered by the U.S. in its territory. This is a win for Obama and his national security team, which meets the promise of his predecessor, George W. Bush, to bring to justice the brain of 11-S.
U.S. intelligence suspected that Bin Laden had moved in recent years by the region of the mountainous area of Chitral in the far northwest Pakistan near the border with China, to Tora Bora in the Kurram Valley, one of Taliban strongholds harder.
