Gunman Who Killed Israeli Embassy Staffers Charged With Murder; Confesses ‘Did It for Palestine’
The man accused of fatally shooting two staff members of the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., has been formally charged with murder, in what authorities are calling a premeditated act of terrorism.
The suspect, 31-year-old Elias Rodriguez, was arrested shortly after the brutal attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum and confessed during police interrogation, stating, “I did it for Palestine, I did it for Gaza.” Prosecutors say Rodriguez targeted the victims—Israeli national Yaron Lischinsky and American citizen Sarah Milgrim—as they were leaving a private event.
The young couple, reportedly days away from getting engaged, were shot multiple times in a chilling execution-style assault captured on surveillance video.

Iran has issued a grave warning to Israel, vowing a devastating retaliation for any strike on its nuclear facilities. The IRGC declared Israel too small and exposed to survive a major response. Following a U.S. intel leak suggesting Israeli strike plans, Iran called on the UN and IAEA to condemn the threats. Tehran accused Netanyahu of provoking conflict to dodge ICC scrutiny and derail diplomacy. Iran warns that failure to act will force it to defend its nuclear assets unilaterally.

France and Saudi Arabia are working behind the scenes on a plan to disarm Hamas and transition it into a purely political entity. Saudi officials have reportedly engaged Hamas leadership, while France’s direct role remains murky. The initiative could allow Hamas to retain limited political influence in future Palestinian governance to encourage disarmament. Tensions are rising between Israeli PM Netanyahu and French President Macron, as France co-chairs a UN conference on Palestinian recognition. Macron has also condemned Israel’s Gaza policy and hinted at EU sanctions amid rising Western criticism.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu erupted in fury following the brutal killing of two Israeli Embassy staffers in Washington, D.C., condemning the attack as an act of terrorism and drawing chilling parallels to the October 7 Hamas assault on Israel. Netanyahu said the targeted shooting — carried out by a suspect who shouted “Free Palestine” and claimed he acted “for Gaza” — was not an isolated incident but part of a growing wave of global antisemitic violence.

An individual was shot by security guards outside the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, around 4 a.m. on Thursday. The incident, which was confirmed as non-fatal, prompted the closure of the CIA’s main gate, with staff directed to use alternate routes. While CIA officials acknowledged a “security incident,” they did not confirm the shooting. The event followed a deadly shooting near the Israeli Embassy the previous night, although authorities say there is no indication the two are connected. Federal and local agencies are continuing investigations.
