The Trump administration has approved the execution of Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter convicted of killing 13 people in a 2009 attack at the Texas Army base. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth recommended the death penalty nearly 17 years after the massacre.

Hasan, a former US Army major, opened fire while shouting "Allahu Akbar. " The ruling clears the way for the first military firing squad execution in decades.
