The US administration is seeking to eliminate the heads of terrorism and arrest the most important of terrorist organizations around the world, especially the leaders of Al Qaeda in Yemen.

After Qasim al-Raymi, the leader of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, was killed by a US raid in Ma'rib, eastern Yemen, the State Department offered a multi-million dollar reward in exchange for information about two other al-Qaeda terrorist heads.

6 million dollars against al-Awlaki

The State Department's Rewards for Justice program posted on its Twitter account, at dawn on Saturday, a picture of Saad bin Atef al-Awlaki, commenting, "The US government offers a reward of up to $ 6 million to anyone who provides information leading to the arrest of Al-Awlaki."

"This criminal terrorist is a threat to the people of Happy Yemen ... The US government offers a reward of up to $ 6 million to anyone who provides information leading to the arrest of Saad bin Atef al-Awlaki," the tweet said.

In a separate tweet, the program also published a picture of Khaled Saeed Batarfi, offering a reward of $ 5 million to anyone who provides information leading to his capture by the American forces.

It explained that Batarfi "is a prominent member of the Al-Qaeda Organization in the Arabian Peninsula in Hadramout Governorate in Yemen and a former member of the Al-Qaeda Consultative Council in the Arabian Peninsula."

These tweets come after US President Donald Trump officially announced at dawn Friday the killing of Qasim al-Raymi, "the emir of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula."

A statement released by the White House said that the United States "conducted an anti-terrorist operation in Yemen that succeeded in eliminating Qasim al-Raymi, one of the founders and leader of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula."

It added: "Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, under the leadership of Al-Raymi, practiced a tremendous amount of violence against civilians in Yemen and sought to execute and instruct numerous attacks against the United States and our forces."


Sources confirmed to Al-Arabiya and Al-Hadath channels that a US march plane targeted on Friday evening, January 31, a house in the Wadi Obeida directorate, east of the Yemeni city of Marib, in which members of the "Al-Qaeda" organization lived, and the raid led to the death of Qassem Al-Raymi.

The second man after Raymi

Returning to the leaders whom America offered millions in exchange for information about, Al-Arabiya sources indicate that Khaled Saeed Batarfi is considered the second man after Qasim Al-Raymi in organizing the Arabian Peninsula base in Yemen, and he is one of the leaders of the first row of the organization who belongs to Hadramaut .. a candidate to succeed Qasim Al-Raymi is at the forefront of the organization, and since 2011 he has worked to attract hundreds of young men to the ranks of al-Qaeda from the protest sit-in yards against the regime of former Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh.

According to Al-Arabiya, this dangerous terrorist was close to the leader of the Islah party, Abdul Majeed al-Zindani.

Batarfi was arrested in Hadramaut, but he soon masterminded the escape of 60 Al-Qaeda operatives from the prison in Mukalla, who was at the head of the fugitives in 2013.

Prince of al-Qaeda in Shabwa

As for Saad Atef Al-Awlaki, he was for several years the Emir of Al-Qaeda in Shabwa.

He was promoted after the killing of the organization's leader, Nasser Al-Wahaishi, in 2016, and he became a leader in the organization's first rank.

He survived an American raid in Shabwa last year, and he is a candidate for the position of deputy head of the organization, that is, a deputy for Batarfi.
