United States destroyed the functionary of al-Qaeda
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited
[REGNUM] A major functionary of the Al-Qaeda terrorist organization banned in Russia * Abu Hassan Al-Mujahid was killed,
...I’m not sure who he is — he doesn’t appear under that spelling in our archives, there’s nothing about his death in our usual sources for Afghan news, and a quick internet search only yields the report of the death in 2019 in Syria of one Abul-Hasan al-Muhajir, an Egyptian who was an ISIS frontman. Perhaps the rest of the world will catch up with Regnum tomorrow...
four Taliban (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) were destroyed along with him, - Andrei Serenko , an expert on Afghanistan , said on the TG channel.

According to sources, a terrorist who arrived in the country from Egypt two months ago was killed in an American drone attack.

Recall that on July 31, 2022, the United States destroyed the leader of Al-Qaeda (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) Ayman al-Zawahiri in Afghanistan .

The official representative of the Taliban (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) , Zabihullah Mujahid, condemned the attack and considered it contrary to international principles and the Doha agreement.

Later, the head of the Afghan Ministry of Defense, Mullah Yakub, accused the Pakistani leadership of providing the country's airspace for American aircraft, in particular UAVs, which then attack targets in Afghanistan. At the same time, Mullah Yakub demanded that the Pakistani authorities stop cooperating with the United States in this matter.

#2 Exactly, Lord Garth — that’s the one who could not be this Abu Hassan Al-Mujahid who was killed with four Talibs. So who is our major Al Qaeda man in Afghanistan who recently arrived from Egypt?

#3 This could be one of Al Qaeda's many Abu Hasan (single s). Al-Majahid would simply be a descriptive.

#4 That makes sense, Slavising Unineting5672, but your alternative spelling doesn’t get any hits in the Rantburg archives either.
