<strong>Pentagon announced the December 3 firing-squad execution would be livestreamed — VP Vance says he won’t watch</strong>
US President Donald Trump has approved the death sentence for Fort Hood attacker Nidal Malik Hasan but says no final decision has been made on whether the execution will be shown live.
Speaking to reporters, Trump confirmed the execution would go ahead via firing squad, adding that a determination on the live broadcast was still being made.
Vice President JD Vance, meanwhile, expressed uncertainty about the Pentagon’s plans. He said he did not know whether the livestream would actually happen — and that he would not watch it even if it did.
The Pentagon had earlier announced that the Fort Hood convict would be executed by firing squad on December 3 and that the execution would be broadcast live.
Hasan was sentenced for the 2009 shooting at the Fort Hood military base in Texas, in which 13 people were killed and 32 others were wounded.
US, Ukraine and European negotiators spent six hours in Miami on Friday working toward a unified proposal to end the war, even as a Trump-Putin fuel deal drew criticism from Kyiv.
