National Guard Shooting (2025): Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan national granted asylum after entering in 2021, was identified as the suspect in a shooting of two National Guard members in Washington, D.C..
Terror Watchlist Entries: Incidents have occurred where Afghan nationals on the FBI’s terror watchlist were apprehended by ICE after initially being released into the U.S., such as a man arrested in Texas in early 2024.
