Al-Qaeda figurehead Hamza bin Laden mourns death of oldest son Osama

Various social media users shared late Sunday a letter written by al-Qaeda figurehead Hamza bin Laden mourning the death of his eldest son, named Osama after his notorious terrorist grandfather.

The letter was addressed to Hamza's mother, Khairiah Sabar, and his sisters.

It read: “To my dear mother, may God protect and care for her, and to my dear brothers, may God protect and care for them and to my dear sisters, with hearts content and surrendered with the will of God, we pay our condolences on the martyrdom of our courageous hero, the martyr’s [Osama bin Laden] grandchild... our son, Osama."

I think this is saying Osama bin Laden's grandson died. Cause of death is not clear.  The article goes on to say it may have been an illness. At this time, this does not seem to be reported elsewhere.
