Trump: son of Osama bin Laden killed in counterterrorism operation

US President Donald Trump announced Saturday that Hamza bin Laden, son of al Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden, has been killed.

The death of Hamza bin Laden occurred during a US counterterrorism operation in the Afghanistan/Pakistan region. The incident is important both symbolically and pragmatically, as Hamza bin Laden was in charge of a variety of terrorist operations while simultaneously inheriting the image of his father.

No details were provided about when or where the counterterrorism strike occurred.

A previous version of this article incorrectly stated that Hamza bin Laden was killed in the Middle East.
