“But it may have been luck of the draw”
If in fact they were intelligence officers then it is likely just the luck of the draw. American Govt officials rarely follow the same routine every day so as to avoid being targeted. I also find it odd that anyone would know they were intelligence officers as opposed to just American diplomats. Not even our own government would out them after their death and since only two Americans (a father and daughter) have been ID’d has having been killed I think this story is likely false.
This story is pure BS
When Pakistan’s Marriott exploded early this fall, Indian papers claimed terrorists killed CIA agents staying there :

Now that India has been bombed, Pakistani papers claim CIA agents were killed while staying at Taj Mahal hotel.
PROPAGANDA WAR, FOLKS.
NOTHING HERE.
MOVE ON.
