Washington: On Sunday, where the sun was rising on one side of Kabul. On the other hand, two Hellfire missiles fired by US drones ended the long reign of al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri. America had prepared for this anti-terrorist operation several months ago. US officials built a scale model of the same type of house that al-Qaeda leader al-Zawahiri lived in. This scale model was brought to the Situation Room of the White House to show President Joe Biden. American officials knew that al-Zawahiri used to sit on the balcony.

Officials worked hard to build a scale model of al-Zawahiri’s safe house. Officials believe that he was on the balcony when the missiles were fired. The US intelligence agency had been trying for years during the tenure of four presidents (George Bush, Barack Obama, Trump, and Biden) to carry out this attack. The CIA had been tracking al-Zawahiri and his associates for a long time.

Zawahiri had built a hideout in Kabul
Al-Zawahiri and his family, backed by the Haqqani Taliban network, had settled in a house in Kabul after the Taliban took control of Afghanistan last year. After nearly 20 years of war, the US forces had withdrawn from Afghanistan. However, for America, the purpose of the 20-year war was to keep al-Qaeda away from Afghanistan.

An independent team of analysts was involved in the planning of the attack
According to the Washington Post, the first step in attacking al-Zawahiri’s hideout was to first confirm his identity to the US. The authorities also had to ensure that the attack was planned in a way that would not unnecessarily endanger civilians in the crowded city. An independent team of analysts was involved in this attack attempt.

Regarding the plan of the attack, Biden said that ‘the plan of attack was clear. I had given the order keeping in view the accuracy of the attack. Which will remove al-Zawahiri from the battlefield forever. Careful planning was done keeping in view the loss and risk to the citizens.

Regarding the design of the plan, President Biden said that it was “designed so that the two missiles would only destroy the balcony of al-Zawahiri’s safe house”. Where terrorist leader al-Zawahiri had been hiding for months. Those living in other parts of the house were quarantined.
