Islamabad:Former U.S. President Donald Trump has been targeted in a recent assassination attempt, adding to a series of attacks against current and former American leaders. Reports from American media indicate that the incident involving Trump occurred amidst public appearances, underscoring ongoing security concerns.
Historically, several U.S. Presidents and prominent figures have faced similar threats. For instance, President Andrew Jackson survived a shooting attempt during his final term rituals, while President Theodore Roosevelt was shot in Milwaukee in 1912.
Moreover, former President Ronald Reagan encountered gunfire outside a hotel in Washington D.C. in 1981 following a public speech. These incidents reflect ongoing challenges to security in American politics, with governors and members of Congress also having been targeted in recent years.
