After years of returning its forces from Afghanistan, the United States showed its integrity towards its revenge for 9/11 in which about 3000 people were killed on September 11, 2011

Zawahiri was an Egyptian surgeon who had a $25 million bounty on his head. He also helped to coordinate the biggest killings in US history that is 9/11. 

As per the US officials, referring to the condition of anonymity told that Zawahiri was killed when he came out of his safe house in Kabul at 6:18 a.m. on Sunday morning by a Hellfire missile attacked with the help of a U.S. drone.

Related to the attack, Joe Biden confirms the news and said “Now justice has been delivered, and this terrorist leader is no more,” he also said from the White House “No matter how long it takes, no matter where you hide, if you are a threat to our people, the United States will find you and will take you down.”

Biden also said that the precision of the strike in downtown Kabul is the consequence of months of planning and this resulted that no civilians being killed. 

Taliban officials have declined to comment on Zawahiri’s death but previously Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid confirmed that a strike took place in Kabul on Sunday he strongly condemned the attack and said it is a violation of international principles.

While the Taliban are not ready to accept the killing of the Zawahiri the other hand US officials are strongly revealing the fact that the al-Qaeda leader was killed during the attack. The senior officials tell the reporters “Zawahiri continued to pose an active threat to the U.S. persons, interest, and national security,” also added, “His death deals a significant blow to al-Qaeda and will degrade the group’s ability to operate.”

US President claimed the killing of the terrorist involved in the 9/11 attack and also he delivered a message to the world that the threat to its people could no longer live in any country of the world. 

The attack was justifiable and ever every county should adopt such a technique of attack on the terrorist but we should not forget the business perspective of America because sometimes it is used to fund the terrorist organization to surge the terrorist activity in different countries, this habit of America deserve a certain amount of criticism.
