AQIM emir believed dead in ANP airstrike
2012-02-20
I'm keeping the official Rantburg ululator near at hand, awaiting official confirmation.
[Magharebia] Algerian experts believe one of three gunnies killed in a recent Algerian army Arclight airstrike near the Malian border to be a senior member of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), based on DNA evidence, El Khabar reported. Samples are being compared with DNA from family members of Yahia Djouadi, alias Abou Ammar, known also as Abu Al Hammam, and of his military commander Mohamed Ghedir, alias Abdelhamid Abou Zeid, and Mokhtar Belmokhtar, among other AQIM leaders.

The three bad boyz were potted just hours after the ANP thwarted the Tinzaouatine terrorist attack, killing seven other terrorists.
