Abstract
- The article states that U.S. development expert Warren Weinstein and Italian aid worker Giovanni Lo Porto were killed by a U.S. drone strike during a January 2015 attack against a compound operated by the Islamic terrorist group al Qaeda in Pakistan. According to the article, Weinstein and Lo Porto were hostages in the compound. The article states that U.S. president Barack Obama took responsibility for the deaths of the hostages, but that Weinstein's family expressed disillusionment at U.S. and Pakistani approaches to Weinstein's capture and imprisonment.
