Abbottabad

Three terrorist outfits - the Lashkar-e-Taiba, Hizbul Mujahideen, and Jaish-e-Mohammed, all banned by the Indian government - have set up a joint training camp in Pakistan's Abbottabad, in a campus belonging to that country's Army.

Sohaib Athar, an IT consultant, became an overnight sensation and was the subject of news stories after he inadvertently live-blogged one the biggest events in history: the US military operation that killed notorious terrorist leader Osama bin Laden.

India has reminded Pakistan, the host to the world's largest number of UN proscribed terrorists and entities, of Abbottabad, the garrison city where Al Qaeda terrorist Osama bin Laden hid for years and was killed, in a hard-hitting response as Islamabad's UN envoy gave a dossier of lies to Secretary General Antonio Guterres.

As tensions escalate between India and Pakistan after the Pulwama terror attack and the subsequent air strike by India, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today said India has the capability to eliminate terrorist masterminds roaming freely in the neighbouring country.

The biggest training camp of the terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed in Balakot that Indian fighter jets bombed in a pre-dawn attack today was just 60 km from Abbottabad, where Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden was found hiding in a discreet bungalow before he was shot dead by US Navy Seal commandos in 2011.

President Donald Trump derided retired Adm. William H. McRaven as a "Hillary Clinton fan" and an "Obama backer" and suggested that the former head of U.S. Special Operations Command should have apprehended Osama bin Laden faster.

President Donald Trump on Sunday defended his administration's decision to stop hundreds of millions of dollars in military aid to Pakistan, saying the country does not do "a damn thing" for the US and its government had helped Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden hide near its garrison city.

Dr Shakil Afridi, a Pakistani doctor serving a 33-year jail term for helping the CIA in tracking down al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden to Abbottabad in 2011 could be released this month after authorities remitted 10 years of his sentence, according to his lawyer.

The release Wednesday of files seized in the 2011 Abbottabad raid on Osama bin Laden's hideout has prompted renewed attention to the former al-Qaida leader. Bin Laden was killed by U.S. forces in the raid six years ago, but his al-Qaida legacy is still the subject of public debate and expert analysis, despite the emergence of an arguably more power...

It's impossible to know whether Osama bin Laden, sequestered in his Abbottabad hideout in Pakistan, ever turned on the DVD player and popped in a documentary he could instantly fact-check: "Where in the World Is Osama bin Laden?"

The film is reportedly titled Abbottabad and it is believed that its story will be about the time Bin Laden spent in between Tora Bora and his last days in Abbottabad

In an unusual move, Pakistani authorities have decided to exhume the bodies of the crew of a plane that crashed last month killing 48 people to see if any of them were under the influence of drugs. Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight PK-661 crashed in a hilly area in Havelian near Abbottabad while en route from Chitral to Islamabad on Dece...
