A new video of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden will soon be released, the group's media arm said on Monday on the eve of the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.
As-Sahab, al-Qaida's media arm, made the announcement on Monday on a website used by Islamist militants.
The website quoted the announcement as saying that "soon, God willing, testaments of the martyrs of the New York and Washington conquests."
"Testament of the martyr... Walid al-Shehri, presented by Sheikh Osama bin Laden, God preserve him," it added.
On Friday, the website also released a video showing the image of bin Laden, who was wearing a white robe topped by a beige cloak and with his beard trimmed and dyed in black.
It was the first video in nearly three years of the world's most wanted man who has a 50 million dollar bounty on his head.
