Abbotabad operation

The Abbottabad operation, conducted on May 2, 2011, was a covert US military raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan, targeting Osama bin Laden, the mastermind behind 9/11. Teams of Navy SEALs parachuted into the compound, engaged in a brief firefight, and successfully killed bin Laden without significant Pakistani involvement or civilian casualties. The operation marked a critical moment in the global fight against terrorism, providing closure for victims and demonstrating operational intelligence and precision. It also heightened tensions between the US and Pakistan, raising questions about state sovereignty and intelligence sharing.
