Two Israeli agents killed “Abu Muhammad al-Masri” who was under the protection of the “guard” … and reports of the death of al-Zawahiri

A US report sheds light again on the fact that Iran has hosted senior leaders in the “Al Qaeda” organization, which Tehran has always denied. The New York Times cited intelligence officials who confirmed the murder of Abdullah Ahmad Abdullah, whose nom de guerre is Abu Muhammad al-Masri, and is considered the second man in “al-Qaeda,” when two Israeli agents shot him from a motorcycle on a street in the Iranian capital last August 7 (August).

Iran’s Mehr agency said at the time of the incident that gunmen shot dead Lebanese history teacher Habib Daoud and his 27-year-old daughter Maryam. But the “New York Times” quoted intelligence officials as saying that the dead man was actually Abu Muhammad al-Masri, accused of participating in the conspiracy of attacks on US embassies in East Africa in 1998, and his daughter Maryam, who happened to be the widow of Hamza bin Laden, the son of a leader, was assassinated with him by Al Qaeda. “

US intelligence officials said that Abu Muhammad al-Masri had been in Iran’s “custody” since 2003, but had been living freely in the affluent “Pasdaran” suburb of Tehran since at least 2015. An intelligence official said that al -Masry lived under the protection of the Revolutionary Guard.

In a statement yesterday, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh denied the authenticity of the US newspaper’s report, saying that his country is not linked to “this group (Al Qaeda).

Meanwhile, an organization concerned about tracking extremist news on the Internet reported that news sites and pages published unconfirmed reports about the death of Ayman al-Zawahiri, the leader of Al-Qaeda.
