Two Israeli Embassy Workers Killed in Washington Shooting

Reported about 19 hours ago

Two staff members of the Israeli Embassy were shot and killed outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., by a gunman chanting 'Free, Free Palestine,' an act condemned as an antisemitic hate crime. The victims were set to get engaged next week, and the incident has raised concerns regarding ongoing antisemitism. A suspect, Elias Rodriguez, was arrested, and officials have stressed the need to strengthen security around embassies. The shooting has prompted widespread condemnation from U.S. leaders, while Israel's Foreign Minister linked such violence to global perceptions of the country's military actions.
