Pakistan urges US to share intelligence on Zawahri

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan called on the United States on Sunday to share information about new al Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahri after US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said he believed that Osama bin Laden's successor was in Pakistan.
During his first trip to Kabul on Saturday as Pentagon chief, Panetta said he believed that the new al Qaida leader was living in Pakistan's lawless tribal belt on the Afghan border.
The Pakistani military said its troops were already carrying out "intense operations" against al Qaida and its affiliates as well as "terrorists leadership" and high value targets (HVTs) who pose a threat to Pakistan's security.
