Federal immigration officials arrested a man allegedly linked to the terrorist group that killed 13 American soldiers during the U.S. military’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Wednesday <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/news/2025/12/03/miles-nations-capital-ice-arrests-isis-k-afghan-terrorist-who-was-released-us-under">arrested</a> Jaan Shah Safi in Waynesboro, Virginia, located about 100 miles from Washington D.C. Safi is a terrorist linked to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria-Khorasan, known as ISIS-K, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
“The Biden administration brought this terrorist into the U.S. under the disastrous Operation Allies Welcome program. This terrorist was arrested miles from our nation’s capital where our brave National Guard heroes, Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe, were shot just days ago by another unvetted Afghan terrorist brought into our country,” said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in a statement.
Noem blamed the Biden administration for creating “one of the worst national security crises in American history” with its botched handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal and the tens of thousands of Afghans that immigrated to the United States as a result.
“Biden let into our country nearly 190,000 unvetted Afghan aliens–only determining who they were and their intentions when they were already on American soil. President Trump has been working every day since January 20 to clean up this unmitigated national security crisis,” said Noem.

In the final week of the Afghanistan withdrawal, a suicide bomber blew up a bomb outside Kabul’s Hamid Karzai International Airport. The airport at the time was serving as the headquarters for U.S. operations extracting service members and others from the country, including thousands of Afghans.
On August 26, ISIS-K <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/united-states-arrests-isis-k-attack-planner-role-killing-us-military-service-members-abbey">conducted</a> a terror attack in which a bomb was detonated outside the airport’s Abbey Gate, killing 13 U.S. service members along with dozens of Afghans.
Safi is the third Afghan that entered the United States during the Afghanistan withdrawal arrested in the past week. On November 26, law enforcement arrested Rahmanullah Lakanwal after officers said he shot two National Guardsmen in Washington, D.C. One of the guardsmen, Sarah Beckstrom, died from her injuries while the other, Andrew Wolfe, is still fighting for his life.
A day prior to the attack, law enforcement in Texas arrested Mohammad Dawood Alokozay on charges of making terroristic threats after he allegedly posted a video to social media threatening to carry out a suicide bombing attack against Americans.
