ODNI Features
In the weeks following the raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan by United States forces, U.S. Intelligence Community analysts sifted through the recovered digital and hard copy materials in search of clues that would reveal ongoing al-Qa`ida plots, identities and locations of al-Qa`ida personnel, and other information of immediate importance. Following a rigorous interagency review, on May 20, 2015 the ODNI began a multi-stage public release of documents recovered from the compound used to hide Osama bin Laden.
