Dubai: Al-Qaida Leader Ayman al-Zawahri in his new audio address criticized heavily on Yemen’s new President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi and called him a U.S. agent and a traitor.
In a 17 minute audio address, Al-Qaida’s leader al-Zawahri attacked President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi for serving as vice president during the “corrupt rule” of deposed leader Ali Abdullah Saleh.
“Out went a (U.S.) agent and in came an agent,” al-Zawahri says.
The audio was put online Tuesday, the same day that Yemen’s military announced that U.S. troops were working directly with them in a major offensive against the militant network.
Hadi took over from Saleh earlier this year in a U.S.-backed power transfer deal that Washington hoped would allow Yemen to increase operations against al-Qaida, which seized control of much of the country’s south.
