During a news conference held on Wednesday, Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Raia of the FBI Counterterrorism Division officially declared the recent attack in New Orleans as an act of terrorism. Raia emphasized the gravity of the situation by stating, 'My goal is to be as forthcoming as possible with you on what we’ve uncovered so far. First and foremost, let me be very clear about this point, this was an act of terrorism.'
According to Raia, the attack was not a random act of violence but rather a premeditated and evil act. The FBI is actively investigating the incident to gather more information and determine the motives behind the attack.
