John Thune (R-S.D.) today released the following statement on the death of al Qaeda terrorist Ayman al-Zawahiri: “Al-Zawahiri was one of the key plotters of the terrorist attacks on 9/11, and he succeeded Osama bin Laden as the leader of al Qaeda for the past 11 years. He shares responsibility for the deaths of thousands of American citizens and has been a top target for the United States for decades,” said Thune. “This successful drone strike is a testament to the vigilance of the men and women who worked to identify and track this priority terrorist target and help deliver swift justice. It should also be a reminder of the global reach of the U.S. Intelligence Community and our entire national security apparatus. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:26:22Z |
