A spokesman for the Northern Alliance, which has taken advantage of U.S. air strikes to seize control of much of the country, said bin Laden was leading the defense of his mountain hide-outs in Tora Bora in person.
``Osama himself has taken the command of the fighting,'' Mohammad Amin told Reuters by satellite phone from Jalalabad.
``He, along with around 1,000 of his people ... have now dug themselves into the forests of Spin Ghar after we overran all their bases in Tora Bora. He is here for sure,'' Amin said.
``American planes have been carrying out regular and severe bombings to kill him.''
CNN reported from Tora Bora that waves of U.S. B-52 heavy bombers and smaller planes pounded the area from daybreak on Sunday. Both Amin and Gen. Richard Myers, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, described the fighting as intense.
FIGHTING FOR SURVIVAL
``Our latest information is ... that he (bin Laden) is in this area, the so-called Tora Bora area,'' Myers said on television.
