WASHINGTON (Pajhwok): The US has confirmed the killing of Qari Yasin, a top Al Qaeda leader responsible for several high profile terrorist attacks in Pakistan, the Pentagon said in a statement on Sunday.
"The death of Qari Yasin is evidence that terrorists who defame Islam and deliberately target innocent people will not escape justice," the US Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said in a statement.
The airstrike was conducted in the Paktika province on March 19. He was responsible for deaths of dozens of innocent victims, including two . . .
