Qaeda operative Abu Musa killed
LAHORE: Top Al Qaeda leader Abu Musa al-Misri, expert at preparing suicide vehicles, was killed in North Waziristan, a private TV channel reported on Wednesday. According to the channel, Musa was killed when an explosives-laden vehicle went off in the house of Gharib Nawaz in Spilga village, about 10 kilometres southeast of Miranshah. “Initially, it was presumed to have been a drone attack, but it turned out to be an explosion in the house,” a security official said. It was not immediately clear whether the tribesman, Nawaz, was affiliated with Taliban or Al-Qaeda networks active in the area. daily times monitor/afp
