Witnesses have described hearing gunshots as two Israeli embassy staff were shot dead near the Jewish museum in Washington DC on Wednesday evening.

Yoni Kalin and Katie Kalisher say the suspected shooter later came into the museum “looking distressed” and admitted to being the gunman.

“He’s like: ‘I did this’,” Mr Kalin tells the BBC, adding the suspect then said: “I did this for Gaza, free Palestine.”

Police have named 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez from Chicago as the only suspect.
