On Thursday, the US Department of Justice charged the first -class killing of the only suspect in shooting two Israeli embassy employees in front of the Jewish Museum in Washington, killing them.
According to a judicial document, Elias Rodriguez was accused of killing foreign officials, causing death using a firearm and using weapons in a crime of violence.
US Secretary of Justice Bam Bondi said the American authorities believe that the suspect in the Washington Museum was behaved alone.
Bondi added in statements to reporters that the security forces have strengthened their deployment about Israeli diplomatic facilities.
The statement of the US Secretary of Justice came after the US Secretary of Homeland Security, Christie Nayb, announced the killing of two employees at the Israeli embassy in a shooting near the Jewish Museum in Washington.
ABC reported security sources as saying that the two dead were participating in an event organized by the American Jewish Committee in Washington.
The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, born in Chicago, who is 30 years old, is accused of shooting a group of people on Wednesday evening while leaving an event for young diplomats hosted by the American Jewish Committee, a group of support that supports Israel and faces anti -Semitism, according to its website.
Officials said Rodriguez was heard chanting “freedom for Palestine” after his arrest, while Israeli embassies around the world have strengthened their security measures after the incident.
