미국, 알 카에다 지도자 예멘서 사살 도널드 트럼프 대통령이 미국 해군기지에 대한 대량사격의 책임을 주장하는 아랍 지하디스트그룹의 알 카에다 지도자를 살해한 사실을 확인했다. 트럼프는 17일 성명을 통해 "미국이 자신의 지시에 따라 예멘에서 카심 알 리미를 사살하는 대테러 작전을 실시했다"고 밝혔다. 알 리미는 아라비아 반도의 알 카에다의 창시자다. 이 그룹은 오랫동안 미국 본토에 대한 공격을 감행하려는 시도로 인해 세계 네트워크의 가장 위험한 지점으로 여겨져 왔다. 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Chul Hwang, conpaper editor, curator |

President Donald Trump has confirmed that the U.S. killed the leader of the Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula jihadist group who claimed responsibility for a mass shooting at an American naval base.
Trump said in a statement on Thursday that the U.S. at his direction conducted a counter-terrorism operation in Yemen that killed Qassim al-Rimi.
While Trump confirmed reports that al-Rimi had been killed, he did not say when the U.S. operation was conducted or offer any details about how it was carried out
Al-Rimi is a founder of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.
The group has long been considered the global network's most dangerous branch for its attempts to carry out attacks on the U.S. mainland.
The jihadist group claimed responsibility for last year's deadly shooting at Naval Air Station Pensacola, where a Saudi aviation trainee killed three American sailors.
While Trump confirmed reports that al-Rimi had been killed, he did not say when the U.S. operation was conducted or offer any details about how it was carried out.
He did, however, say that the U.S. and its allies are safer as a result of al-Rimi's death.
