Answer:

D: It was linked to the bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa.

Explanation:

The terrorist attacks on the United States embassies in Africa took place on August 7, 1998 in Nairobi (Kenya), and in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), the main objective being the embassies of the United States. These attacks, whose authors were linked to the terrorist group Al-Qaeda, led to Osama bin Laden, leader of the group, being included in the list of the ten most wanted FBI fugitives.

In the attack on the embassy in Nairobi, at least 213 people were killed, including 12 Americans, and between 4,000 and 5,500 people were injured. As a result of the violent explosion, several large buildings in the center of the city and the weakening of the Kenyan economy were completely destroyed.

In response to the events, on August 20, 1998, Operation Infinite Reach was carried out, through a missile attack from a United States Navy cruiser to an Al-Qaida training camp in Afghanistan and the destruction of a pharmaceutical plant in Sudan, following suspicions that chemical weapons were produced at the Al Shifa plant and controlled by the Arab terrorist Osama bin Laden.

Along with the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in 1993, the bombing of Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia, and the attack against the USS Cole in Yemen, the attacks on the US embassies in Africa are part of the major anti-American attacks. that preceded the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

meriva

Answer

The time had no electricity and so it was an age that was quite dark. The era seemed less important than the Renaissance and the Roman Empire. Castles were very dark and did not let in much light.
