The U.S. military has confirmed that a convicted individual will face execution by firing squad in December at the same Texas base where a mass shooting occurred over a decade ago. The decision follows a recent failed lethal injection attempt in another state, raising questions about alternative execution methods. Authorities have not provided further details on the case or the circumstances surrounding the upcoming execution. The announcement marks a significant development in the legal proceedings of a high-profile military court case.


The Pentagon says Nidal Hasan will be executed by firing squad in December at Fort Hood, where he killed 13 people in 2009. The announcement came days after a botched lethal injection in Tennessee.
