Iran Press/ America: US Police were warned of threats of violence at a planned Saturday rally at the U.S. Capitol by Donald Trump supporters, and the National Guard put 100 troops on standby to provide support, after the building was breached during January 6 riot.
Some media outlets reported that Donald Trump supporters clashed with security forces in front of the Congress building.
Security forces in Washington have been on high alert for several days to counter possible riots and protect the congressional building.
On Wednesday, January 6, a group of Trump supporters stormed into the congressional building as a joint session of the US Congress was underway to finalize the victory of Joe Biden in the US presidential election.
The attack was followed by Trump calling for his supporters to rally in front of the US Congress.
At least five people were killed and dozens more were injured in the storming of the US congress. 219
