An investigation is underway in Washington, D.C., after a deadly shooting allegedly involving Israeli diplomats on Wednesday night.
The Metropolitan Police Department reported that they are investigating a shooting near 3rd Street and F Street Northwest, the location of the Capital Jewish Museum.
Fox News confirmed a man and a woman were both killed in the shooting. Further details were not immediately available.
Danny Danon, Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations, stated that an event was occurring at the museum and described the fatal shooting as a “depraved act of anti-Semitic(sic) terrorism” in a statement shared on X late Wednesday night.
“Harming diplomats and the Jewish community crosses a red line. We trust that US authorities will take decisive action against those responsible for this criminal act. Israel remains committed to resolutely protecting its citizens and representatives worldwide,” he wrote.
