A quiet afternoon near the White House erupted into chaos on November 26, 2025, when two West Virginia National Guard members were critically shot during a targeted attack. Just blocks away from the nation’s most iconic landmark, the attack has set off a chain of events that is quickly reshaping the security landscape of Washington, D.C. Around 2:15 p.m., as the sun hung low over the nation’s capital, two soldiers on patrol near the Farragut West Metro Station were ambushed in broad daylight. The suspect, later identified as 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, pulled out a firearm and opened fire on the unsuspecting guards.
