Good
morning. Two Israeli embassy aides were shot and killed outside an
event in Washington. Trump criticized South Africa’s leader, Cyril
Ramaphosa, in the Oval Office. And the government continues to deport
migrants to countries they’re not from.

A DEADLY SHOOTING IN D.C. |
Two
young Israeli Embassy staff members were shot and killed at close range
in downtown Washington last night. They were leaving a reception for
diplomats at the Capital Jewish Museum. Here’s what we know about the shooting.
- The suspect:
A 30-year-old man is in custody. He approached four people, shot the
two victims, then walked into the museum, where security detained him
and he shouted “Free, free Palestine.”
- The victims:
Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim were about to be engaged. “The
young man purchased a ring this week with the intention of proposing to
his girlfriend next week in Jerusalem,” the Israeli ambassador said.
- The response:
Benjamin Netanyahu called the shooting a “horrifying antisemitic
murder.” President Trump wrote on social media that the killings were
based in antisemitism, adding: “Hatred and Radicalism have no place in
the USA.”
