Video report by ITV News Reporter Serena Sandhu
US authorities have offered a $1 million reward (£755,000) for information leading to the capture of Osama bin Laden's son.
Hamza bin Laden, son of the late terrorist leader, is considered to have taken up his father's mantle by emerging as the new head of Al Qaeda.
Hamza was named a "specially designated global terrorist" in January 2017.
He has released audio and video messages calling for attacks against the US and its allies.
Saudi Arabia has also revoked Hamza's citizenship.
The news, executed by royal decree in November, was only made public on Friday.
A State Department notice said the reward will be paid for help locating Hamza bin Laden in any country as part its "rewards for justice" programme.

A statement read: "Hamza married the daughter of Mohammed Atta, the lead hijacker and a mastermind of Al Qaeda's September 2001 airline terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.
"Osama bin Laden's letters seized from the Abbottabad, Pakistan compound where bin Laden was killed indicate that he was grooming Hamza to replace him as leader of Al Qaeda."
