allAfrica.com: Libya: Al-Qaeda Seeks Libya Foothold (Page 3 of 3)

Some security experts say that al-Qaeda boss Ayman al-Zawahiri sent operative Abd al Baset Azzouz to Derna to oversee the restructuring al-Qaeda in Libya and co-ordinate between the terror organisation's various branches in the Maghreb region.

A YouTube video that circulated in 2012 shows Azzouz preaching to Derna residents. In the clip, he is seen trying to convince a small crowd gathered in a square that the Islamists would bring security to the city.
