Several individuals at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, home to Air Force One, have reported illness following the delivery of a suspicious package. According to multiple media sources, the incident prompted an evacuation of a building on the base after an individual opened the package and discovered white powder inside. In addition to the powder, political "propaganda" was allegedly found concealed within the package. Emergency services responded swiftly to the scene, stating that there was no immediate threat. However, as a precaution, the base was placed on lockdown, and an investigation has been initiated by officers stationed there. The specific symptoms experienced by those who fell ill have not yet been disclosed. Notably, the package arrived just one day after former President Donald Trump visited the base. Typically, the US president uses Marine One to travel from The White House to Joint Base Andrews before boarding Air Force One for international trips. Joint Base Andrews also accommodates the C-130 Hercules aircraft, which is utilised for cargo operations, and the KC-135R Stratotanker, a refuelling tanker. The situation remains under investigation as authorities work to determine the nature of the package and the health implications for those affected.
