The suspect accused of gunning down two Israeli embassy staff outside a Jewish museum in Washington has been charged with murder, as international tensions over anti-Semitism erupted after the attack. Elias Rodriguez, 30, shouted “Free Palestine” as he was taken away by police after the shooting late on Wednesday (local time) outside the Capital Jewish Museum, prosecutors said in a court document. “I did it for Palestine, I did it for Gaza,” he told the officers.

Great @nyt long-read from Greenland by @kristamahr. https://t.co/zU0NSdPmGA

The @Newseum in Washington sadly closes down today. Its memorial wall for journalists who lost their lives on duty includes Shah Marai, @AFP photographer in Kabul. He was killed in 2018. (The fate of the museum exhibits and memorial wall is unclear.) https://t.co/pBJJ2ZSkm6

Trump visits troops in Afghanistan, says Taliban talks back on. (13-hour flight from DC. He's now back at Mar-a-Lago.) @AFP https://t.co/LulBsClOKQ
