The Perpetrator of the Armed Attack in the U.S. Has Been Identified
An armed attack was carried out on two National Guard soldiers stationed near the White House in the United States. President Donald Trump revealed that the assault was orchestrated by Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan who had fled from the Taliban to the US in 2021. Asserting that the attack was an act of terrorism, Trump vowed that all those responsible would face the harshest punishment. On the other hand, in the aftermath of the attack, immigration applications from Afghan nationals in the US were indefinitely suspended.
An armed attack was launched on two National Guard soldiers in the vicinity of the White House, located in Washington D.C, the capital of the United States.
Deputy Chief of Police in Washington D.C, Jeffery Carroll, reported that the assailant approached the guards during their patrol duty. 'We've established that the suspect began firing at two National Guard members immediately after turning the corner,' he stated.
Carroll went on to recount how other National Guard personnel in the area responded upon hearing the gunshots. 'They intervened and were able to keep the suspect on the ground until law enforcement arrived at the scene within a few minutes of him being shot,' he explained.
Meanwhile, U.S. media outlets, citing security sources, announced that the FBI will initially investigate the attack as a 'potential act of terrorism.' The suspect was identified as 29-year-old Rahmanullah Lakanwal of Afghan origin. It was reported that he had been living in the Bellingham area of Washington state since the U.S. withdrew from Afghanistan in 2021.
US President Trump leveled accusations against Biden.
US President Donald Trump declared the armed attack carried out near the White House against two National Guard personnel as a crime and act of terror committed against the entire US nation. He asserted, 'As the President of the United States, I am determined to ensure that the perpetrator of this brutality pays the heaviest possible price.' Trump held the previous US President, Joe Biden, and his administration responsible for the entry of the attacker, who is of Afghan nationality, into the country.
The processing of Afghan nationals in the US has been put on hold.
In the wake of an armed attack targeting two National Guard personnel near the White House in Washington D.C., the U.S. government has made a notable move. Following the identification of the suspect as an Afghan national, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the suspension of immigration applications from individuals of Afghan nationality.
The statement read, 'All immigration applications related to Afghan citizens have been indefinitely halted for processing until the security and security investigation protocols are reviewed.' It was emphasized that the safety of the nation and the American people continues to be the focal point of USCIS.
