US: The United States has no DNA confirmation of the death of al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri in the heart of Kabul, a White House spokesman on Tuesday, but verified his identity through other sources.

“We do not have DNA confirmation. We’re not going to get that confirmation. Quite frankly, based on based on multiple sources and methods that we’ve gathered information from, we don’t need it,” White House national security spokesman John Kirby said in an interview with CNN.

“We have visual confirmation, but we also have confirmation through other sources.” Kirby also said there was a small al Qaeda presence remaining in Afghanistan.

Meanwhile, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Monday that the Taliban has grossly violated the Doha Agreement by hosting and sheltering Al-Qaeda Chief Ayman al-Zawahiri.

The US and the Taliban signed the peace agreement in February 2020 under the Presidency of former US President Donald Trump. The deal stated the withdrawal of the US troops from Afghan soil and the Taliban would abate violence and guarantee that its soil will not be a safe haven for the terrorists. Meanwhile, the family members of a 9/11 survivors group have expressed gratitude to US President Joe Biden for eliminating al-Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri saying it was a “significant step” in their years-long battle for justice and accountability.

The 9/11 Justice, a grassroots organisation comprising survivors, first responders, and family members who lost their loved ones in the September 11, 2011 terror attacks in the US that left 2,977 people dead, expressing joy over the terror group leader’s death, said the step was particularly meaningful to the 9/11 community who continued their battle for justice.
