Six months after al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri was killed in an airstrike in the Afghan capital, Kabul, the leadership of the terrorist group has passed to his successor in Iran, Saif al-Adil, according to US sources. This person is a former Egyptian special forces officer, a skilled commander with extensive operational experience in various locations, who later joined a terrorist organization.
Tehran has always denied information about its links with Al-Qaeda. However, the intelligence services of various countries state that there is cooperation between Iran and "Al-Qaeda" based on the facts in their hands. Why not? Tehran can proceed from the principle that "the enemy of my enemy is not my friend, but my partner." If "Al-Qaeda" has chosen Western countries, especially the United States, as its target, it is in Tehran's interests as well. Tehran may want to carry out the revenge of Qasim Sluyemani, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, who was killed by a US rocket attack, through the hands of others. The information spread in the media that the organizer of the murder of Academician Ziya Bunyadov has been hiding in Iran for 26 years also indicates a lot of things.
