==Additions to the list== By 2006, more than four years had passed since the FBI had listed the original 22 alleged terrorists on the Most Wanted Terrorist list. Of those 22, by then four had been qualified for removal from the list, due to death or capture. Also by then, the FBI determined that other people qualified for the list. Some were indicted for attacks and plots that had taken place since the original list had been compiled. The original indictments had been for incidents only through 1998. The US had been victim to at least two significant terror attacks, which had generated new indictments, notably: * [[USS Cole bombing|USS ''Cole'' bombing]] in 2000, which killed 17 American sailors and wounded 40 on October 12, 2000, off the port coast of [[Aden, Yemen]] * [[September 11, 2001 attacks]] in [[Manhattan]], [[Washington, D.C.]], and [[Pennsylvania]] In addition, after the original 2001 list had been compiled and released to the public, the US had foiled and issued indictments for numerous other plots, involving some new listed Most Wanted Terrorists. Those notable other plots involved:<ref name="release">{{cite web|url=https://www.fbi.gov/pressrel/pressrel06/mwtl_yemen022306.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100411074732/http://www.fbi.gov/pressrel/pressrel06/mwtl_yemen022306.htm|archive-date=April 11, 2010|title=Recent Escapees From Yemen Prison Added to Most Wanted Terrorists and Seeking Information β War on Terrorism Lists|date=February 23, 2006|access-date=August 14, 2012|publisher=Federal Bureau of Investigation}}</ref> * The [[Buffalo Six]], a [[Buffalo, New York|Buffalo]], New York, cell, or Lackawanna Cell, exposed September 2002 * [[Palestinian Islamic Jihad]], on [[Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act]] (RICO) charges for plots based from [[Syria]] since 1995 * [[Abu Sayyaf]] kidnappings and murders of foreign nationals in the Philippines In February 2006, the FBI completed two groups of additions to the Most Wanted Terrorists list, the first additions in over four years. On February 24, 2006, the day after adding two names to the list, the FBI added an additional six fugitive terrorists, for various plots and attacks. One of the entries was for an indictment dating back to the June 14, 1985, hijacking of TWA flight 847 by Hezbollah (see above). Additionally, the FBI also added to the Seeking Information β War on Terrorism list an additional three people, most notably, [[Abu Musab al-Zarqawi]], the leader of [[Al-Qaeda in Iraq]].<ref name="24threlease">{{Cite web|url=https://www.fbi.gov/pressrel/pressrel06/mostwantedterrorists022406.htm|title=FBI Updates Most Wanted Terrorists and Seeking Information β War on Terrorism Lists|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100830144046/http://www.fbi.gov/pressrel/pressrel06/mostwantedterrorists022406.htm|archive-date=August 30, 2010|access-date=January 3, 2012|date=February 24, 2010|publisher=FBI.gov}}</ref> This marked the first time that al-Zarqawi had appeared on any of the three major FBI wanted lists.
