The attack came two days after about 3,000 fighters held a rally near Khar, shouting slogans in support of Osama bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaeda, and Mullah Mohammed Omar, the Taliban's leader. In January 2006, US forces in Afghanistan carried out an airstrike in Bajaur's Damadola village which US officials said was aimed at al-Qaeda's second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahiri. Al-Zawahiri was not present during the attack. The Pakistan-Afghan border has been a haven for fighters for decades.
