Aug 13, 2025

New York [US], August 13: US National Guard troops have begun arriving in Washington DC on the orders of President Donald Trump.
The president declared a public safety emergency on Monday, deploying 800 troops and taking federal control of the city's police department - a first for any US president.
Washington's Mayor Muriel Bowser has rejected Trump's claims about crime, saying figures show violent crime is at a 30-year low.
A White House briefing is expected soon, which may also provide updates on Trump's upcoming meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday.
