Six Arrested in Foiled White House Terror Plot Targeting UFC Event
Washington D.C., Wednesday, 24 June 2026.
Federal authorities have arrested six individuals linked to a chilling plot to attack a high-profile UFC event at the White House using explosive-laden drones and snipers. The suspects allegedly planned to create mass panic by detonating drones, then target fleeing crowds—including government officials and business leaders. Shockingly, the group discussed procuring military-grade artillery and 3D-printed weapons, with one suspect boasting control over 40 drones. The FBI disrupted the operation just days before the event, preventing what prosecutors warn could have been a catastrophic mass-casualty attack.
