The FBI has disrupted a planned attack on the White House involving snipers and drones, according to law enforcement sources. The plot was allegedly timed to coincide with a major Ultimate Fighting Championship event scheduled nearby, raising concerns over security protocols for large public gatherings during high-profile moments. Officials confirmed that multiple suspects were taken into custody in a coordinated operation across several states.
Details remain scarce, but sources indicate the suspects had acquired long-range rifles and unmanned aerial systems, which were to be used in a coordinated assault on the executive mansion. The Bureau declined to comment on the suspects' motives, pending further investigation. The White House press secretary stated that the President was briefed and that security has been heightened.
The UFC event proceeded without incident, with enhanced security measures in place.
