Finally, we have clarity on the status of the leader of #AlQaeda, Ayman al-Zawahiri. He has appeared in a video today talking about an incident that happened in Feb 2022 in India on the subject of women’s hijab code /1
The latest al-Qaeda video shows al-Zawahiri in seemingly good health and in a setting not seen in previous al-Qaeda videos, another sign suggesting it's new. In late 2020, he was rumoured to have died or been incapacitated /2
Despite AQ putting out multiple videos featuring Zawahiri since rumours of his death or ill health emerged in Oct 2020, they had all shown him discussing historical events & ideological topics that failed to prove his present condition & enhanced speculation about his status /3
