LIVE: Israeli diplomat, woman shot and killed in Washington, D.C.

A man and woman were shot and killed in front of the Capital Jewish Museum in Northwest D.C. Wednesday evening.

The man was an Israeli diplomat, two sources familiar with the investigation confirmed.

The shooting took place about 9:15 p.m. in the area of 3rd and F streets in Northwest — in front of the Capital Jewish Museum and behind the FBI field office and the U.S. attorney’s office.

Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon posted on the social media platform X that Israeli embassy employees were injured in the fatal shooting. He called it “a depraved act of anti-Semitic terrorism.”

News4 has not confirmed any additional victims other than the deceased man and woman.
