The DOJ says Zubayr al‑Bakoush, alleged to be a key participant in the 2012 Benghazi attack that killed four Americans, was arrested abroad and brought to the United States—arriving at Andrews Air Force Base—to face an indictment that includes murder, terrorism and arson charges. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the transfer, framed the arrest as accountability and a warning to would‑be terrorists, and U.S. law enforcement described the capture as a significant counterterrorism operation.
