Who cut off the power??
“One of my colleagues wanted me to ask you if there was any weirdness with radios, Wi-Fi, or mobile phones during the raid. Jamming, in other words.
Athar: The power was cut off during the raid—a friend living in the neighborhood verified that. Landlines were working at least in my area. They did jam the signals and landlines a while AFTER the operation (and probably during the search operations) in the (Pakistani) morning, as many people could not get through to their friends or family living near the compound.”

The sound of helicopters is not uncommon in Abbotabad. There is a lot of military there.

In fact, I heard someone say that the U.S. probably tried to mimic the common flight patterns so that people wouldn’t notice anything was unusual.

Seems to have worked.
