(CNN) — Two people believed to be connected to the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC, were shot Wednesday night, according to a source familiar. A law enforcement source tells CNN that two people were killed and at least one of them is believed to be connected to the embassy.
DC Police say they are investigating a shooting across the street from the FBI’s Washington Field Office. The Capital Jewish Museum is also located nearby. The Israeli embassy is working with law enforcement.
Israel’s Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon reacted to media reports of the shooting on Wednesday, saying in a statement on X, “The fatal shooting that took place outside the event that took place at the Jewish Museum in Washington, DC – in which Israeli embassy employees were also injured – is a depraved act of anti-Semitic terrorism.”
The Israeli ambassador was not involved in the incident and was not at the location when the shooting happened, an embassy spokesperson told CNN.
Police are advising people to avoid the area in Northwest DC.
