Bin Laden, the mastermind behind the September 11 attacks, was located and killed in a compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. The global economy also faced challenges, with the Eurozone crisis intensifying as countries like Greece, Ireland, and Portugal struggled with severe debt issues, leading to austerity measures and bailouts from international lenders.
