“The report was based on documents provided by Edward Snowden, the U.S. intelligence contractor turned leaker who has exposed the massive scale of the NSA’s eavesdropping efforts. NSA cyber spying helped pinpoint a senior Al-Qaeda figure, Hassan Ghul, who was killed in a drone strike in Pakistan’s tribal belt in 2012, the Post wrote. The operation was made possible in part by an email from Ghul’s wife that was scooped up by the National Security Agency’s vast surveillance dragnet, it said. The United States has never publicly confirmed that it took out Ghul. But documents passed to the Post by Snowden made clear he was killed by the U.S. government last year.”
