Washington, May 3 (ANI): US President Barack Obama along with his high-level team, watched live coverage in the White House, as the commandos gunned down the world’s most wanted terrorist Osama Bin Laden Via a video camera fixed to the helmet of a U.S. Navy Seal.
Obama was watching the operation live when bin-Laden was shot in the left eye, the Daily Mail reports.
The Seal then carried out a ‘double tap’ military act, shooting him again, probably in the chest, to confirm that he was dead.
The footage of the battle in Bin Laden’s Pakistani hideout, relayed to the White House by satellite, is believed to have shown one of his wives acting as a human shield to protect him as he blasted away with an AK47 assault rifle.
She died, along with three other men, including one of Bin Laden’s sons.
Bin-Laden’s body was buried at sea hours after Obama confirmed his death. (ANI)
