Israeli Embassy Staffers Shot And Murdered Outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington

Two Israeli embassy staffers members were shot and killed outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. by a Pro-Palestinian activist.

The shooting occurred on May 21, at 9:15 PM on the 300 block of F Street NW, next to the museum, which was hosting the American Jewish Committee’s Young Diplomats Reception last night.

“After the shooting a guy came inside [the museum] saying he saw it and needed water and a safe space, then whipped out a keffiyeh and yelled “free Palestine,” before being escorted out by police,” a witness at the museum told The National Pulse.

US Attorney General Pam Bondi, who arrived at the scene with Interim U.S. Attorney for Washington DC Jeanine Pirro tweeted, “I am on the scene of the horrible shooting outside the Washington, DC Capital Jewish Museum with @USAttyPirro. Praying for the victims of this violence as we work to learn more.”
