Baby Chakraborty, KalimNews, January 3, 2025, Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi strongly condemned the terrorist attack in New Orleans on Thursday, which claimed the lives of at least 15 people. Speaking in response to the tragedy, PM Modi called the attack an “act of cowardice” and offered heartfelt condolences to the victims and their families. “We strongly condemn the cowardly terrorist attack in New Orleans. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families,” the Prime Minister said in a statement.
The New Orleans attack came just hours after another violent incident in Las Vegas, where a Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump International Hotel, resulting in one death and seven injuries. The FBI has confirmed that the explosion was terrorism-related, with the suspect identified as Shamsud Din Jabbar, who allegedly had ties to ISIS. Investigators also revealed that the vehicle used in the attack had been rented through a platform called Turo and contained multiple suspected explosive devices.
The series of events has sparked widespread concern over security threats and raised questions about the increasing risk of coordinated terrorist activities. Authorities are continuing their investigations into both incidents, as the nation grapples with the fallout from these attacks.
