A gunman attacked the Azerbaijani Embassy in Tehran at around 8.30 a.m. local time. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan announced that the security director was killed and 2 security guards were injured while preventing the attack. After the attacker was caught by the security forces, an investigation was launched into the incident.
A gunman armed with an M4 rifle killed four people, including NYPD Officer Didarul Islam, in a mass shooting at 345 Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. The attacker, 27-year-old Shane Devon Tamura, later died by suicide on the 33rd floor. Police say Tamura, who traveled from Colorado, had a history of mental illness and was possibly acting selectively. Three civilians were also killed; one person remains hospitalized. The FBI is assisting in the investigation. Mayor Eric Adams called the incident “a night of senseless violence.”
