Somalis hail al-Qaeda mastermind's death

None

Residents of war-torn Somalia say they hope the death of an al-Qaeda mastermind accused of plotting US Embassy bombings 13 years ago will bring peace to Somalia.

 

Resident Ali Abdi, a trader, said Sunday he hopes the death of Fazul Abdullah Mohammed will demoralize terror groups active in the country and bring peace after decades of conflict. Somali officials announced Saturday that they had killed Mohammed in Mogadishu. Representatives of the al-Shabab militant group did not immediately confirm the death. (AP)
