US President Barack Obama announced that Osama bin Laden, the al-Qaeda leader,
|
|
was killed on Sunday by US special forces who stormed his compound in
|
|
Abbottabad, Pakistan using helicopters.
|
|
|
|
Four helicopters launched the attack in the Bilal area of Abbottabad, about 62
|
|
miles north of Islamabad, said a Pakistani intelligence official.
|
|
|
|
One of the aircraft crashed and burst into flames after it apparently was hit
|
|
by fire from the ground, the official said. No American casualties have been
|
|
reported.
|
|
|
|
The helicopters took off from a Pakistani air base in the north of the
|
|
country.
