Usayd al-Adani (died March 2, 2017) was a senior leader of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.[1][2][3][4][5]
He was killed by a missile launched from a surveillance drone, on March 2, 2017. His killing attracted additional scrutiny as one of the seven other individuals killed by the missile was Yasir al-Silmi, said to be another name for an individual formerly held in extrajudicial detention in Guantanamo, Mohamed Tahar.[5][6][7][8][9][10]
After his death American officials claimed al-Adani was not just the leader of AQAP's efforts in Abyan Province, but that he was also an experienced bomb-maker.[5] Courtney Kube, reporting for NBC News reported that he was killed in the village of Wadi Yashbum in Shabwa Governorate.

The death of Mossad al-Adani, al Qaeda's emir of Abyan governorate and an explosives expert, is a "blow to al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula," according to the officials. Also killed in that same strike was a former Guantanamo detainee, Yasir al-Silmi. He was at Guantanamo from 2002 to 2009

Silmi, a Yemeni national who had also gone by the name Mohamed Tahar, was arrested in Pakistan in 2002, and handed over to U.S. authorities in May of that year. While U.S. officials suspected him of having ties to al-Qaeda plots, Silmi, like the vast majority of the more than 700 inmates who have been held at Guantanamo since 2002, was never charged with a crime.
