Security Council Monday welcomed the news of Al Qaeda leader Osama
bin Laden's death as a "critical development" in the global
anti-terror campaign, and urged "all states to remain vigilant in
the fight against terrorism", Xinhua reported.
"The Security Council welcomes the news May 1, 2011 that Osama bin

group," the Security Council said in a statement, which was

"The Security Council recognizes this critical development and
other accomplishments made in the fight against terrorism and
urges all states to remain vigilant and intensify their efforts in
