Who was Ayman al-Zawahiri, the world's most wanted terrorist?

Leader Ayman al-Zawahiri has died after a drone attack in Afghanistan by the US. Biden said Zawahiri, 71, was the chief architect behind multiple attacks on the US and was "deeply involved" in planning the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. "People around the world no longer need to fear the savage killer. and determined.

The United States continues to demonstrate our resolve and capacity to defend the American people against those who seek to do us harm," Biden said.

Who is Zawahiri, how did he come to power and what was his relationship with Osama Bin Laden?

Born in 1951, Zawahiri grew up in an upper-class neighborhood in Cairo, Egypt, the son of a prominent doctor and the grandson of renowned scholars. He was jailed for his involvement in the assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat in 1981. "We want to speak to the whole world. Who are we? Who are we?", he said in a prison interview.

At the time, he was a young doctor, a dedicated terrorist who plotted to overthrow the Egyptian government for years and tried to replace it with fundamentalist Islamic rule. He proudly supported the assassination of Sadat after the Egyptian leader made peace with Israel, CNN reports.

Zawahiri left Egypt in 1985 and headed for Peshawar, Pakistan, where he worked as a surgeon treating fighters who were engaged with Soviet troops in Afghanistan. In that period he met with bin Laden and their common bond as "Afghan Arabs" became stronger. After reuniting in Afghanistan, bin Laden and Zawahiri appeared together in early 1998 announcing the formation of the Islamic World Front for Jihad Against Jews and Crusaders. He also acted as Bin Laden's personal physician.

"We are working with brother bin Laden. We have known him for more than 10 years now. We have fought with him here in Afghanistan," he said. The two terror leaders signed a statement: "Judgment to kill and fight Americans and their allies, whether civilian or military, is an obligation for every Muslim".

Osama bin Laden sits down with Ayman al-Zawahiri November 10, 2001 Attacks against the US and its facilities began shortly after bin Laden and Zawahiri's statement, with suicide bombings of US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania killing more than 200 people and injured more than 5 thousand others. The climax of Zaahir's terrorist plot came on September 11, 2001, when about 3,000 people were killed in the attacks on the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

A fourth hijacked plane, bound for Washington, crashed in a Pennsylvania field after passengers fought back. He became al Qaeda's leader after US forces killed bin Laden in 2011, who was constantly on the move once the US-led invasion of Afghanistan began after the 9/11 attacks. He managed to escape the US attack in the rugged Tora Bora mountain region of Afghanistan, where his wife and children were killed.
