A U.S. intelligence report released Friday charged that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman “approved” the 2018 operation that resulted in Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi’s death inside the kingdom’s consulate in Istanbul.
The report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence concluded that the crown prince “approved an operation” to “capture or kill” the journalist. Khashoggi’s death inside the building was captured on audio, and his remains are believed to have been sawed into pieces and smuggled out of Turkey.
