A group known as "The Liberation Army for Holy Sites" claimed responsibility, however investigators concluded that it was a pseudonym for the real attackers, Egyptian Islamic Jihad, who had planned the bombings as a revenge attack in conjunction with Al-Qaeda. 21 indictments were released for the attack, including for bin Laden, Atef, [[Ayman al-Zawahiri]], Odeh, Atwah and Al-Owhali. As of 2019, all 21 are either dead or in custody, with the exception of al-Zawahiri, [[Saif al-Adel]] and [[Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah]]. | A group known as "The Liberation Army for Holy Sites" claimed responsibility, however investigators concluded that it was a pseudonym for the real attackers, Egyptian Islamic Jihad, who had planned the bombings as a revenge attack in conjunction with Al-Qaeda. 21 indictments were released for the attack, including for bin Laden, Atef, [[Ayman al-Zawahiri]], Odeh, Atwah and Al-Owhali.
