Холбооны мөрдөх товчоо Цагаан ордны өмнөх талбайд зохион байгуулагдсан UFC Freedom 250 тэмцээний үеэр тэсрэх бөмбөг бүхий дрон ашиглан халдлага үйлдэхээр төлөвлөсөн бүлэг этгээдүүдийг баривчилжээ.
Зургаадугаар сарын 14-нд Цагаан ордны өмнөх талбайд болсон UFC Freedom 250 тэмцээний үеэр террорист халдлага үйлдэхээр завдсан хэргийг Холбооны мөрдөх товчоо (FBI) илрүүлсэн байна. Уг төлөвлөгөө нь тэсрэх бөмбөг бүхий дроноор барилгуудыг бөмбөгдөж, улмаар эмх замбараагүй байдал үүсгэн зугтаж буй хүмүүс рүү мэргэн буудагчдаар гал нээх, цаашлаад Цагаан ордны хаалга руу дайрах ажиллагааг багтааж байжээ. Мөрдлөгийн явцад нийт 23 хүнийг сэжиглэж байгаагаас даваа гарагийн байдлаар таван этгээдийг баривчилсан байна.
Нууц албаны захирал Шон Карран мэдэгдэлдээ, аюулгүй байдлын баг тэмцээн эхлэхээс өмнө халдлага үйлдэхээр завдсан этгээдүүдийг илрүүлж, хариуцлага тооцохоор ажиллаж байгааг онцолжээ. FBI-ийн захирал Каш Пател тус байгууллагын ажилтнуудыг өндөр түвшинд ажиллаж, олон нийтийг хамарсан томоохон арга хэмжээний үеэр гарч болзошгүй аюулаас урьдчилан сэргийлж чадсаныг сайшаасан байна. Ерөнхийлөгч Дональд Трамп энэхүү халдлагын төлөвлөгөөний талаар мэдээлэлгүй байснаа илэрхийлж, тулааны үдшийг өндрөөр үнэлжээ.
Тэмцээний гол тулаануудад Жастин Гейжи Илия Топуриаг дөрөвдүгээр раундад хүнд цохилтоор буулган авч UFC-ийн хөнгөн жингийн аварга цолоо нэгтгэсэн бол, Сирил Ган хоёр жингийн аварга асан Алекс Перейраг нокаутаар ялж, хүнд жингийн түр аварга болсон юм. Тэмцээний аюулгүй байдалтай холбоотой асуудлууд болон цаг агаарын таагүй байдлаас шалтгаалан тулаанууд бага зэрэг хойшлогдсон ч амжилттай үргэлжилж өндөрлөсөн байна.

UFC White House might have avoided more than just a little bad weather.
On Tuesday, Fox News reported that FBI officials disrupted an alleged terrorist plot that involved explosive drones and snipers with the target being attendees of this past Sunday’s UFC event, which took place on the South Lawn of the White House, with President Donald Trump and numerous officials and VIPs watching, as well as at the nearby Ellipse Park, where nearly 80,000 fans were expected to be in attendance.

According to the report, the alleged plot would have seen explosive-laden drones strike buildings at the event with the intention to force an emergency evacuation. People would then be steered towards an area where they could be shot at by snipers. A “second wave” would then directly attack the White House gates.
UFC White House took place June 14, and the potential threat was reportedly first discovered by the FBI on June 10, with the alleged suspects gathering for final preparations in Fredericksburg, Va. One suspect was taken into custody in Cincinnati and, as of Monday, five suspects are in custody with investigators identifying 23 people as being involved in the plot.
“In the days leading up to this weekend, our special agents, mission support personnel, and technical security teams worked around the clock to identify those responsible and hold them accountable,” Secret Service Director Sean Curran said in a statement to Fox News. “Equally important to our protective mission is ensuring accountability through the justice system. To that end, our formal comments regarding the specifics of this case will be made through court filings.”
Ahead of Sunday’s event, which was first announced in June 2025, much of the talk revolved around how UFC CEO Dana White and his team would deal with the numerous logistical issues involved with putting on a show at the White House, with security being a chief concern. Weather was also a major topic of discussion, though the event proceeded with only a delay to the start time despite inclement weather in the surrounding areas.
FBI Director Kash Patel praised his team for preventing the alleged plot.
“While the result represented the best of investigative work, it was also nothing out of the ordinary for this law enforcement team,” Patel said. “We are built to detect, respond to, and bring to justice those who threaten the lives of American citizens—particularly during large gatherings like the historic UFC [Freedom] 250 fight. That’s exactly what we did here.”
At the G7 summit in Évian-les-Bains, France, on Tuesday, Trump was asked about the FBI stopping the alleged plot and he replied that he wasn’t aware.
“I haven’t heard about it,” Trump said. “The attack that I watched were the fighters. … They were as good a fights as I’ve ever seen, the best. That last fight was brutal and the two last—all of the fights were good. It was all good, it was a great evening, it was very different for the White House.”
In the main event of Sunday’s card, Justin Gaethje scored a dramatic fourth-round knockout over Ilia Topuria to unify the UFC lightweight titles, while Ciryl Gane became interim heavyweight champion a second time with a knockout over former two-division champion Alex Pereira.
