Horrific attack in New Orleans: 15 killed
Just before the New Year, a fatal incident occurred in the US city of New Orleans, which shocked the entire country. According to reports, a terrorist carried out a massive attack in which at least 15 people were killed. The attack took place when people in the city were busy celebrating New Year. The attacker brutally mowed down people, and terror spread throughout the area. Following the attack, New Orleans police cordoned off the area and increased security. This incident has raised serious questions about the increasing violence and terrorist attacks in America.
Blast in Las Vegas: Bomb explodes in front of Trump Hotel
Apart from the incidents in New Orleans and New York, another incident also occurred in Las Vegas, which again challenged America’s security system. A big bomb exploded in front of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas, which shook the entire city. The explosion was so powerful that windows of many nearby buildings were broken and many cars were damaged. After this blast, security officials sealed the entire area and started investigating the cause of the blast. Although no casualties were reported in this attack, the incident became another example of increasing insecurity in America.
Questions on increasing cases of terrorism and firing
The increasing incidents of terrorist attacks and shootings in America are continuously becoming a matter of concern. These incidents that occurred on the occasion of New Year have made it clear that the situation of violence and insecurity is continuously increasing in the American society. These incidents raise the question whether America needs to further strengthen its security system, and will the government have to take some strict steps to stop such attacks?
Security experts believe that the increasing incidents of firing and terrorist attacks in America are not only challenging the internal security of the country, but are also affecting America’s image around the world. Excessive use of weapons and social unrest are believed to be a major reason behind these incidents. Additionally, mental health and lack of strict security measures are also fueling these attacks.
Increased responsibility of police and security agencies
After these incidents, the responsibility of American police and security agencies has increased further. Especially after major incidents like New York and New Orleans, there has been increased pressure on the US government and the police department to identify the attackers as soon as possible and take strict measures to stop such attacks. Especially the deployment of SWAT teams and the activation of local police have been increased after these incidents.
According to statistics, the incidents of shootings and terrorist attacks are increasing every year in America. These incidents are not only a threat to the local people, but are also raising questions on the safety of tourists and foreign citizens. In such a situation, the question arises whether America needs to re-examine and strengthen its internal security system?
