The headquarters of the Democratic National Committee (DNC),
located in Washington, D.C., was closed on Thursday and surrounded by heavy
security, local authorities confirmed. The measure generated alarm in the U.S.
capital and fueled speculation about possible threats to the political
institution.
According to initial reports, units from the Washington
Metropolitan Police and the Secret Service responded in a coordinated manner to
the building after receiving a security alert, the nature of which has not yet
been revealed. Witnesses reported that barriers were placed around the building
and that access to passersby and workers in the vicinity was restricted.
Sources close to the party indicated that the closure of the
building was carried out as a precautionary measure while the circumstances
that led to the police intervention were investigated.
This incident occurs amid heightened political tension in
the United States, with ongoing debates about election security, polarization,
and social protests that have tested the stability of institutions and parties
in recent years.
The incident follows a series of recent episodes that have
led to increased security at government buildings and party headquarters in
Washington, amid growing concerns about potential acts of political violence.
