Zawihiri Close to Capture?

This is what DEBKA is claiming:

Until the middle of last week, Zuwahiri sheltered with the local Pashtun tribes in Bannu, a town in the northwest Pakistan tribal federation of North Waziristan. The approach of Pakistani and US intelligence and special forces caused him to switch hiding places and move to Tank or Tang, a town 120 km south of Bannu.

On Saturday, two soldiers were injured by a bomb explosion in that town, having just missed their quarry.

Since the report also claims that the search for Zawahiri has put them on the trail of Osama bin Laden, then color me skeptical. After last week's "new" Osama bin Laden video, I also have a pretty good guess where he is: hell.
