Abu Qatal was a close aide of Hafiz Saeed
Abu Qatal, a top operative of the terror outfit Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), has been eliminated in Pakistan.
Qatal, who had orchestrated several attacks in Jammu and Kashmir, was a close aide of Hafiz Saeed, the 26/11 Mumbai attacks' mastermind.
Commanded by Saeed as LeT's Chief Operational Commander, Qatal carried out several key operations in Kashmir.
His death is considered a massive blow to Lashkar-e-Taiba's operational framework.
