Four men have been found guilty of bombing two US embassies, killing 224 people.
Mohamed Rashed Daoud Al-'Owhali, Khalfan Khamis Mohamed, Wadih El-Hage and Mohamed Sadeek Odeh were found guilty of conspiring to cause the bombings of the embassies in Tanzania and Kenya on August 7th, 1998, by a New York court.
Al-'Owhali and Khalfan Khamis Mohamed were also found guilty of the murder of 12 Americans and face the death penalty.
The four men are accused of working for the world's most wanted terrorist, Osama bin Laden.
But bin Laden, the fugitive Saudi multi-millionaire alleged to be masterminding a terrorist campaign against the US, was not in the dock where the four men were on trial, despite facing a US indictment for the crime.
The jury of seven men and five women had been considering its verdict since May 10th, with 576 individual charges made against the four men at the end of the four-month trial.
They found Al-'Owhali (24) had driven the truck that carried the explosives and found Mohamed (27) guilty of building the bomb.
America is still pursuing 18 other men, including bin Laden, in a bid to bring them to justice for their alleged involvement in the bombing.
