Washington: The US Capitol building has been put in lockdown and multiple congressional buildings have been evacuated following increasingly violent protests by supporters of President Donald Trump as the Congress began the debate on certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory.
According to CNN, shortly after 1 pm ET (11:30 pm IST), pro-Trump protesters pushed through barriers set up along the perimeter of the US Capitol Building, chanting ‘USA! USA!’ and waving American flags, as well as flags reading ‘Don’t Tread on Me.’
Protesters participating in a "Stop the Steal" rally in support of President Trump outside the U.S. Capitol breached a police security perimeter and stormed the U.S. Capitol building, forcing lawmakers to abandon the House floor.
