“Senior al Qaeda operative killed in Somalia”
By BILL ROGGIOSeptember 1, 2008 4:41 PM

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Al Qaeda has reported one of its senior operatives in eastern Africa was killed during fighting in Somalia more than one year ago. Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, a senior al Qaeda operative in eastern Africa, announced the death of Abu Talha al Sudani while discussing the May 1 airstrike that killed Aden Hashi Ayro, the leader of Shabab in Somalia.

“And before him [Ayro], more than a year ago, our leader was martyred, the leader of the mujahideen in Somalia, Abu Talha al Sudani, while he was leading one of the battalions of the mujahideen,” according to a translation provided by Nick Grace. “And this is the first time that we make it public.” Grace monitors al Qaeda and other jihadi forums.

The disclosure was made in a tape released last night on jihadi Internet forums by As Sahab, al Qaeda’s propaganda arm, Grace told The Long War Journal.”
