Hamza Bin Laden, the son of slain terrorist Osama Bin Laden, is believed to have married the daughter of Mohammed Atta - the lead hijacker of the 9/11 terror attack on the United States of America, The Guardian has reported.
According to the report, this news was confirmed by Bin Laden’s half-brothers Ahmad and Hassan al-Attas, who also expressed fear of Hamza having taken up a senior position with the terror organisation al-Qaeda, allegedly to avenge his father’s death.
Laden’s son who is believed to be the deputy of current al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, has been reported to have made statements urging his followers to wage war against cities like Washington, London, Paris and Tel Aviv.
Hamza is the son Khairiah Sabar - who is of one of Laden’s three surviving wives. She was living along with the slain terrorist when US Navy Seals eliminated him in Pakistan’s Abbottabad.
The report claims that before his death, Laden was grooming Hamza to replace him.
The current whereabouts of Hamza are unknown, but Laden’s half-brothers speculate that he could be in Afghanistan.
Two of Bin Laden’s sons namely Khalid and Saad are already deceased. Khalid was killed during the Abbottabad raid, and Saad died in a 2009 drone strike in Afghanistan.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
