How USA Tracked Down Osama Bin Laden

Osama bin Laden, the founder and former leader of the terrorist organization al-Qaeda, was killed on May 2, 2011. He was located and killed by United States Navy SEALs during a covert operation in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The operation, code-named "Operation Neptune Spear," was carried out by U.S. Special Forces on the orders of then-President Barack Obama.

The operation resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden, who had been one of the world's most wanted terrorists for nearly a decade. His death marked a significant milestone in the global fight against terrorism, as he was the mastermind behind the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in the United States.
