Washington:The area surrounding the White House experienced a heightened state of security on Monday after a car collided with a security barrier in the northern garden of the presidential complex. This incident prompted the intervention of security forces and the US Secret Service, leading to the imposition of strict security measures in the vicinity.
According to Maan News Agency, news reports indicated that a vehicle crashed into the northern security barrier of the White House. Authorities responded by declaring a security alert and setting up a security cordon around the site to examine the vehicle, investigate the circumstances of the incident, and determine its causes.
