Pakistani man charged with plotting to attack Jewish center in NY pleads guilty

A Pakistani man pleaded guilty to a terrorism charge Wednesday, saying it was a “morally reprehensible idea” to support the Islamic State group by plotting to use automatic weapons to kill Jewish people at a Brooklyn center. Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, 21, said he answered the group's call for Muslims to kill Jewish people by plotting to attack the Jewish center in October 2024. He entered the plea in Manhattan federal court over 18 months after he was brought to the United States from Canada, where he was arrested on Sept. 4, 2024, in or near Ormstown, Canada, which is 12 miles from the U.S. border. In a release, Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg said Khan planned a mass shooting to coincide with the anniversary of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attacks “with the explicit goal of killing as many Jews as possible.” Eisenberg said Khan, also known as “Shahzeb Jadoon,” had boasted that he would carry out the largest attack on U.S. soil since the Sept. 11 attacks. Khan told Judge Paul G. Gardephe as he pleaded guilty to a single charge of trying to commit acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries that he was going to cross the border from Canada to the United States in September 2024 with “the intention of killing Jewish people in Brooklyn.” Khan said he was motivated to provide material support to the Islamic State group in retaliation for Israel's killing of Palestinians in Gaza. He said he now regrets his plan, which included renting a space next to the Jewish center. “I was not raised this way,” Khan said, adding that what he planned to do was wrong. Khan said plotting to kill Jewish people was a “terrible, extremely dangerous and morally reprehensible idea.” Gardephe set sentencing for Aug. 12, when Khan could face up to life in prison. Kahn has been jailed since his arrest. He was granted a student visa in Canada in May 2023 and arrived in Toronto in June of that year. U.S. authorities have said he planned to use guns and knives to carry out an attack supporting the Islamic State group. Authorities said Khan drew the attention of investigators after he began posting about his support for the Islamic State group in November 2023. They said he subsequently began planning terrorist attacks in the United States and communicating with two undercover law enforcement officers. According to a release from federal authorities, he said he planned to target a prominent Jewish religious center in Brooklyn, the release said. He told the undercover officers that “New york is perfect to target jews” because it has the “largest Jewish population in america,” the release said. He also wrote that “we are going to nyc to slaughter them,” the release said. U.S. authorities have said his online messages described the Brooklyn site, which was not named in court documents, as “the ultra orthodox hasidic jews world headquarters.”

Attorney Says Man Shot By ICE Did Not Try To Run Over Officers

By: Dianté Marigny An attorney for a man shot by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Patterson, California, says his client did not attempt to run over officers during an enforcement stop, disputing federal claims about the incident. Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez was wounded Tuesday when ICE agents fired during a traffic stop, and the Department of Homeland Security said agents acted in self-defense after he attempted to drive into them. His lawyer says Mendoza Hernandez panicked and tried to flee, and that he has no warrant or criminal record in the U.S. The shooting is now being investigated by the FBI. Dashcam footage released from the scene shows officers surrounding the vehicle before it moved, but it does not clearly show Mendoza Hernandez trying to hit agents.

Tensions rise as Strait of Hormuz closes again

By: Dianté Marigny Tensions in the Middle East have escalated again as Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global shipping route, in response to renewed Israeli strikes on Lebanon, raising doubts about the viability of a fragile ceasefire. Iranian state media reported that tanker traffic was halted after Israeli bombardments against Hezbollah positions, which Tehran described as violations of the emergency truce. The closure came just hours after a temporary ceasefire deal between the United States and Iran was announced, a pact that had included provisions for reopening the strait. The waterway, through which roughly one-fifth of the world’s oil and natural gas flows, is vital to global energy markets; its closure has the potential to disrupt shipments and increase prices worldwide. Iran said it would only allow coordinated passage under its armed forces’ supervision, and it tied compliance to broader regional conditions, including the cessation of attacks in Lebanon. Israel, for its part, maintains the ceasefire does not cover its operations against Hezbollah and has continued military strikes.

US troops on standby as Iran closes Strait of Hormuz

By: Dianté Marigny U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says American troops are on standby and ready to resume operations if Iran fails to honor its commitments amid escalating tensions in the Middle East. The announcement comes as reports indicate Iran has once again closed the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli strikes on Lebanon. The crucial waterway handles a significant portion of the world’s oil shipments, and its closure has heightened global economic concerns. Officials say U.S. forces are closely monitoring the situation while awaiting diplomatic and military developments.
