ah ah safe then he'd been home and then he international anti corruption excellence award boat now for your hero. ah

ah. just as has been delivered in this terrace leader is no more the us says, a drone strike has killed al high, the leader, a mozilla heavy, the afghan capital. ah, i'm sammy's a dan. this is al jazeera live from dell hall, so coming up u. s. how speaker nancy pelosi and malaysia, while china warns against extending her asian tool to taiwan, confrontations in iraq, supporters of influential lead mckuddle, souther, occupied palmer and opponents protest. and turkey's control center waits for the 1st grain chip that left ukraine's port.

ah, b, i says it's killed the leader of al qaeda aimen as though our hurry in a drone strike can afghanistan, president joe biden says intelligence officials tracked so i hurried to a house in central cobble where he was hiding with his family. biden approved the operation last week. after months of planning, shebra tansy has more the u. s. president of the execution of i'm and i was that were here. he was approved for the u. s. and could be effective and it's counter terrorism operations, even after the troop withdrawal, he ordered from afghanistan, when i entered our military mission of kansas almost a year ago, i made a decision that after 20 years of war, the united states no longer needed thousands of boots on the ground in afghanistan to protect america from terrace, who seek to do us harm in administration. officials said that the 2 hellfire missiles fired onto a balcony of

a residential block in downtown cobble on sunday morning with the result of patient painstaking analysis that lasted months. throughout the administration says joe biden was deeply involved in the planning, even commissioning a muslim of the building and his determination to limit civilian casualties. intelligence revealed of what his family 1st moved to couple earlier this year before being joined by the leader of al qaeda. he never left the building but was also seen on the balcony where he was eventually killed. the u. s. says there were no other casualties. the u. s. a long insisted. there's a relationship between the taliban and al qaeda. but taliban leaders have denied that. now with this killing and downtown cobble, it will be difficult at the very least, to deny that a fraction of the government dropped it out to a safe haven. think this is a proud moment for joe biden, tempered only by the fact that it took place in cobble which thus raises the spectre of the withdraw from afghanistan. and of course,

the terrorist organizations clearly reestablishing themselves or that the attack took place, just as the afghan government is in negotiations to free $3500000000.00 in foreign reserves. it desperately needs to feed its people, is also a focus of some and i'm, i would where joe biden is in need of good news to quell domestic critics of, of handling of the u. s. economy. and following a trip to the middle east. the received mixed reviews, the white house is clearly relishing this news. she advertise see al jazeera washington al jazeera sammy. let's see if he has more from cobble were here in the neighborhood where i'm and i was, i was, he was allegedly killed. and as you can see, this is a perfectly residential area. there's travel agencies, there's grocery stores, there's banks. all of these things are leading to increasing worry among the us who feel that the outcry the leader was being housed in a perfectly residential urban center of the city. and at the same time,

the tall barn is upset that a year after their occupation ended, the u. s. is still conducting drone strikes on what they consider to be sovereign avalon territory. mohammed jam june has more now on the man who was our hi, this 2nd most prominent figure off to some of been live in amen. and so i had long been a deputy to some of that. but after the u. s. killing of the them and car, the leader in 2011. so i took charge of the armed group attempting to expand its reach while never engendering the kind of loyalty afforded his predecessor. so while he did inherit the mantle of leadership, he did not inherit sound but led his legitimacy as a well, jerry had leader all his a credibility and legitimacy on karima amongst the various majority in groups born in egypt, in 1951. so ari came from a distinguished family, studied medicine, and became a surgeon. in 1973,

he joined the egyptian islamic jihad group the assassination of president and worth so that the nation, $81.00 for which the group was blamed, proved to be a turning point for. so why, while he was not charged in connection with the dots killing, he was imprisoned on conspiracy charges, one of thousands of religious activists jailed and tortured after the assassination . many analysts say that experience would eventually lead him to violence after his release from prison. so i had he left egypt for shower in pakistan, where he worked as a doctorate, treating afghan fighters. then it was on to afghanistan where he fought against the soviet occupation and where he began his partnership within latin. within a few years, both men would become part of the core group that became al qaeda under their leadership, the armed group accused the west of waging a modern day crusade against muslims and set as its ultimate goal, the establishment of islamic rule throughout the world. at a car does ideology, along with its international campaign of violence, culminated in the 911 attacks. washington offered

a reward of $25000000.00 to bring the wiley to justice off shoots of the armed group in yemen. somalia and algeria are widely believed to be his work phase off to when i was on the blood and was assassinated and aimen of the lady to cova. you can see the fracturing of the organization becoming more and more apparent once the syrian civil war began. so i had he found that alti, this dominance was being increasingly challenged by isolate which had carved out territory for itself in it up syria and libya, and had fighters in yemen in 2016. so i had a urged afghan fighters to rally around the taliban and reject isolate branch in afghanistan. a duel is clearly loosely me when i call upon the brotherly muslims and jihad, he's in general. and enough, con a son in particular to get behind the jihad in the patient and the steadfast emerald, and not to respond to the cause aimed at dividing the ranks of jihad. he's off today, the death of aimen. and so i had, he brings an end to one of the most turbulent times in recent international security. the world will now be watching to see how elko the handles,

the death of its 2nd prominent leader. lucille reaction on this from the regent. come on. hi, there is in the past on the capital this particular report about the confirmation of the death of the why he it indeed going to be big news in this area. however, at the same time, richard, we understood i did the effective date was now in question because of the al qaeda leaders had gone off the radar. they were not able to use any communications. and the fact that i says we're able to eclipse the al qaeda a movement itself. so indeed, there will be questions as to whether there was data agreement from the neighboring country to a loud or drones to be able to target id number 2. and right now the number one, acting leader of all of guy, chinese fighter jets of flo,

near the unofficial dividing line between mainland china and taiwan. tensions are running high with reports us how speak and nancy pelosi could arrive in taipei in the coming hours. she's in malaysia as part of her asia tool. china says the u. s. will pay a price if policy travels to taiwan. washington is urging beijing to act responsibly . santana, silly with haven't quincy fact. recently the u. s. has claimed this commitment to the one china policy back she lives has been back tracking blaring and ha, now the one china principal and the u. s. has also gone against its commitment on maintaining non official ties with the taiwan region. he has upgraded its level of contact with taiwan and he has increased our sales to taiwan. so on that, many people on the inside have been very clear about dis, domestically and internationally, and a half point to that. the danger of those actions, sleazy jewish, patrick focus more from beijing. one of the things that's been talked about in the

u. s. is concerned over whether all china really grasp the concepts of separate branches of government in the us and the foreign ministry here in beijing address not to day spokesperson. watching said that when there is a provocative visit to taiwan by a us politician, it cannot be considered unofficial, especially when the politician is the number 3 u. s. government official and especially when she is traveling to taiwan on a military aircraft watching, also addressed the issue of precedence, referring to for my house speaker newt gingrich is, is that i 1997. say that just because it has happened before, doesn't mean the you, i should be repeating that mistake. so that was the clear rejection of the point that was made by whitehouse. national security advisor john car be saying that this is part of long standing u. s. policy and that there was no reason to escalate any sort of crisis because of

this. she was also off today whether not the lines of communication were being kept open between beijing and washington. and she said that china had repeated to washington many, many times, that it was opposed to this visit and said that since she hoped it was clear, washington about the severity of this visit and how dangerous it might be. and in taiwan, officials say they will warmly welcome any foreign visitors why you need to go made she do make all we did notice several speculative news reports about whether the speaker of the us house of representatives, nancy pelosi is visiting taiwan. the minister of foreign affairs is reiterating that it does not have further information to share in this case. and it is not commenting on it dealing with the visits of useful tissues. as of course, one of the foreign ministry mean duties as well as data for representative office in the u. s. taiwan government has always welcome form friends visiting taiwan to

increase understanding of taiwan and express the support to our country. and the vehicle paul on is the international editor of taiwan plus. she joins us on skype from ty pay. so despite the official vagueness we heard there, those media reports about the visit that it's going to happen. just getting stronger and stronger, right? that's right. media reports are saying she's going to go, had talked to the president, she's going to visit the legislature. and i can also tell you that art for parliament, swords out the presidential office, have confirmed to us that she will be landing in a few hours. tomorrow morning she will be meeting with the president buying when she will hold a press conference. she'll even visit a human rights museum, visit the legislature and fly off later in the day. that's from presidential tours that has told pie one plus then again, i have caveat that

a plan can always change as we feed and upon to be high level your cell a gauge, the business. and well, this has been shrouded in secrecy, and nobody confirming anything at any point, but lots of speculation and drifts and drops of information coming through. of course, china's in warning of consequences this, this visit happens what a people expecting trying to do. that's right, and that's precisely why a lot of this has been, you know, shrouded with very little information coming out, you know, trying to take it quite as strong that you think aggressive language, although they haven't quite clearly said what they will do as far as people in 51 though, you know, they're used to just kind of language from china, especially because trying to consider why want as part of the factory. so anything that legitimize that i want them and international drugs, perhaps as its own entity, with its own government. anger is china and they react to it and often that by fly,

by with work leads and they are depend zone or they'll do naval exercises or other military by just less like their muscle. but the other way that they can hurt, i want a new ball ready scene that's in the past few hours. it's economically now. china largest trading partner and very, very tight economic ties between the 2 countries. and china has now back the number of food brands and agriculture products from taiwan. and they say it's because it customs, but it's big enough punishment for this possible visit by nancy pelosi and for many people here. and i want who lived with the refrain of trying to say, you know, we are good. thank you. by course we are in charge of you. that possibly is the biggest issue at hand because because the reality of the trying to convert them economically needed if it one. all right, the big problem, thanks so much the

successfully invading inside the refugee cab. they've arrested a, the islamic jihad lead that of a samus id. he's a prominent lead that in islamic jihad, which is why the party has announced that its members are on high alert. we've also heard that the, his a, his son in law was arrested with him. and it's rare that we see these really forces release a picture of a ditty me after he's being arrested. it's been inter put that here as a way for israel to a sure is slamming jihad that he's fine, since we've heard that he was shot in the leg as he was being arrested by these rating forces. of course in jeanine, usually armed clashes are ensued when is ready, forces enter the city and there are future cap. and we know that 17 year old did or ca, freeney has been shot in the head. he's being now laid to rest in jeannine and all
