Al-Qaeda’s second in command was reportedly killed by Israeli assassins on motorcycles at the request of the United States, according to intelligence officials.
The New York Times reported that Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, also known as Abu Muhammad al-Masri, was shot by motorcycle-riding Israeli assassins on the streets of Tehran three months ago. Al-Masri was described as “one of the masterminds of the deadly 1998 attacks on American embassies in Africa” and was on the FBI’s “Most Wanted Terrorist” list. Also killed in the attack was al-Masri’s daughter, Miriam, who was previously married to Osama Bin Laden’s son Hamza, who was killed in the early years of the Trump administration.
