The United States has designated an alleged senior North African al Qaeda leader a "terrorist" as part of Washington's support of French-led troops who wrested northern Mali back from Muslim extremists. The US Treasury on Thursday targeted Yahya Abu Hammam, an alleged senior leader in al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) with an executive order used to designate "terrorists and their supporters."
The Treasury described the Algeria-born Abu Hammam as the AQIM leader for the Sahel, a vast and arid region of North Africa, and said he has "played a key role in the group's ongoing terrorist activities in North Africa and Mali."
