The United States has officially described the devastating car bombing near the historic Red Fort in Delhi as a “clearly terrorist attack.” U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised India’s response to the incident, highlighting their “very measured” and “very professional” handling of the investigation. The blast, which originated from a car laden with powerful explosives, tragically claimed at least 13 lives. India officially designated the event a “heinous terror incident.” Speaking from Canada, the official noted that while the U.S. is aware of the potential ramifications, India’s investigative process deserves commendation. He indicated that facts would be released as the investigation progresses. The U.S. has extended an offer of support, though it was acknowledged that India possesses significant expertise in handling such complex inquiries. The conversation also included broader geopolitical concerns, such as the volatility in the region and past confrontations.
