The 62-minute video was released to jihadist websites according to the private intelligence firm Site Monitoring Services.  The video features an audio speech by Ayman al-Zawahiri, al-Qaida’s new leader since Osama bin Laden was killed in May.  Zawahiri was reportedly only shown in a photograph during his speech.

According to the Associated Press, the video named “The Dawn of Imminent Victory” also contained previously unreleased footage of bin Laden.

Zawahiri, an Egyptian, now tops the U.S. list of most wanted terrorists.  It is unclear when Zawahiri recorded the latest message.
