A Pakistani national has admitted to planning a horrific act of violence in the United States, pleading guilty to attempting to commit acts of terrorism transcending national boundaries. Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, also known as “Shahzeb Jadoon,” made the guilty plea in a New York federal court on April 8, 2026, for attempting to carry out a mass shooting at a prominent Jewish center in Brooklyn, New York.

According to the Justice Department, Khan planned to enter the United States and carry out the attack using automatic weapons. The alleged plot was foiled, and Khan is now facing the consequences of his actions. He will be sentenced on August 12, 2026 by U.S. District Judge Paul G. Gardephe.
