A U.S. strike in Afghanistan over the weekend killed top al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahri, the Associated Press reported Monday.
The White House did not immediately confirm the strike. But President Joe Biden is set to deliver remarks Monday night to announce a successful counterterrorism operation against a "significant" al-Qaida target in Afghanistan.
Over the weekend, the United States conducted "a counterterrorism operation against a significant" al-Qaida target in Afghanistan," an administration official said. "The operation was successful and there were no civilian casualties.”
The announcement comes nearly one year after the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, ending America's longest war amid the Taliban's return to power.

Mr. Biden just opened the third front😅😅😅😅 He’s a great American leader. We so like him in Russia🤓 Hi, Taiwan🤣
how those sanctions holding up?
@Jacob Randall I pay for unlimited electricity, hot and cold water supply, clinning and consierge services in my place 7000 roubles (€140) monthly. The fuel for my car costs 54 roubles (€0.9) per littre. I was in the local department store to choose some TV set for my country house last week. 70″ Samsung TV with 4k resolution costs 90000 roubles now. It was 120000 roubles five months ago🤓
@валерий гольштейн that same TV costs between 32,000 rubles and at most 56,000 rubles (with delivery) in America. the gas is 75 ruble/liter (not bad) where I’m from, but it makes sense for yours to be cheaper considering orc-land has all the oil.
Good thing Taiwan is moving its chip manufacturing to America so our economy can only go up, meanwhile the west is moving towards greener alternative energies to be independent from Russian gas. No Russian gas means no money for Russia 🙁
this is not looking good for you sir
Did the CIA throw a retirement party?

@Melody Yes, I made a profit of €10,500 trading with her on a short-term trade
@Melody I think I’m blessed because if not I wouldn’t have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mrs Noelle, I think she is the best broker ever seen
@Bethari Goddess I recently ventured to invest with her making trades on my behalf, she has been of great help, and her tutelage has led me to a greater understanding of profits.
She’s the first rated, inimitable and most satisfactory broker, I have tried many professionals, but I only earned exceptional income trading with Mrs Noelle strategy.
Thanks President for staying the coarse
@NukeChina he just care of the leader of Al. A real leader.
@Knowles Better ok his ratio is 13 to 1 if u understand the ratio
