The SEALs encountered the residents in the compound's guest house, in the main building on the first floor where two adult males lived, and on the second and third floors where Bin Laden lived with his family. The second and third floors were the last section of the compound to be cleared. There were reportedly small knots of children...on every level, including the balcony of bin Laden's room. In addition to Osama bin Laden, three other men and a woman were killed in the operation. The individuals killed were Bin Laden's adult son Bin Laden's courier (Al-Quwaiti), al-Kuwaiti's brother Abrar, and Abrar's wife Bushra. Al-Kuwaiti opened fire on the first team of SEALs with an AK-47 from behind the guesthouse door, and a firefight took place between him and the SEALs, in which al-Kuwaiti was killed. The courier's male relative Abrar was shot and killed, before he could reach an AKSU found lying nearby, A woman near him,one of his wives was also shot and killed. Bin Laden's adult son rushed towards the SEALs on the staircase of the main house, and was shot and killed The SEALs encountered Bin Laden on the second or third floor of the main building. The SEALs quickly followed him into his room. Inside the bedroom, two of Bin Laden's wives stood in front of him, shielding him. One of them screamed at the SEALs in Arabic and motioned as if she were about to charge. One of the SEALs shot her in the leg, then grabbed both women and shoved them aside. A second SEAL entered the room and shot bin Laden in the chest, and then in the head with his H&K 416 with Navy M855, 5.56 mm rounds. The SEAL radioed, "For God and Country I'll end your life," and then, "Geronimo E.K.I.A."
