President Trump Confirms Osama Bin Laden’s Son Was Killed

President Donald Trump on Saturday confirmed that Hamza bin Laden, the son of Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, “was killed in a United States counterterrorism operation in the Afghanistan/Pakistan region.”

“The loss of Hamza bin Laden not only deprives Al Qaeda of important leadership skills and the symbolic connection to his father but undermines important operational activities of the group,” the White House said in a statement. “Hamza bin Laden was responsible for planning and dealing with various terrorist groups.” . . .

Earlier this year, the State Department offered a $1 million reward for any information that lead to Hamza bin Laden, Fox News reported.
