US President Donald Trump has stopped all asylum rulings and blocked visas for people using Afghan passports after a shooting near the White House killed one National Guard member. The suspect, 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was arrested and faces murder and assault charges. Trump called the attack a “terrorist act” and blamed the Biden administration for allowing Afghans who worked with US forces to enter the country. He also said he would pause migration from what he called “Third World countries.” US immigration officials said asylum cases will remain on hold until stronger checks are in place. (PC: HT)
