FBI Arrests Five in Alleged Plot to Assassinate Donald Trump Using Explosive Drones
Federal authorities in the United States have detained five people across several states in connection with an alleged assassination plot targeting Donald Trump, according to TVRInfo.ro.
Investigators identified 23 individuals believed to be involved in the conspiracy. The suspects allegedly planned to strike during a sports gathering held at the White House the previous Sunday. Their scheme involved deploying drones carrying explosives to hit nearby structures, aiming to create panic among attendees who would then be funneled toward positions occupied by snipers.
The intended targets included Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and entrepreneur Elon Musk. A second team was reportedly prepared to breach the White House gates.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation received advance warning just days before the event from the mother of one suspect. She had grown concerned about her son's weapons purchases and his online communications with a group composed of former military personnel and individuals holding radical religious beliefs.
The organization sought to spark a revolution by attacking influential figures. Their grievances reportedly included government corruption, the handling of the Epstein case, and data centers consuming large amounts of water.
When asked whether he had been informed about the alleged plot, Trump stated he had not been briefed.
This is not the first threat against the American president's life. In April, a man opened fire on Secret Service agents during the White House Correspondents' Association dinner, an event Trump attended. Last July, he was shot and slightly wounded in the ear during an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania.
