The Guardian: Trump: US has killed al-Qaida militant tied to USS Cole bombing
* Seventeen sailors died in 2000 suicide attack in Yemen harbour
* Trump: ‘We have just killed the leader of that attack’
Donald Trump said on Sunday the US military has killed Jamal al-Badawi, an al-Qaida militant wanted in connection with the attack on the USS Cole.
Seventeen US sailors died and at least 40 people were wounded in the October 2000 attack, in which suicide bombers almost sank the guided missile destroyer while it lay in Aden harbour.
The attack on the USS Cole foreshadowed the attacks of 11 September 2001, in which 2,977 people were killed in New York City, Washington DC and Pennsylvania. Badawi was indicted in 2003 and charged with terrorism offenses including murder of US nationals and military personnel.
