US President Joe Biden condemned the attack on his rival Donald Trump, who was injured during a rally in Pennsylvania. Trump was immediately escorted to safety and is reportedly fine. Biden stressed the importance of unity and condemned violence. The incident occurs as both men face off in the upcoming November elections.

US President Joe Biden on Saturday condemned the life-threatening attack on his Republican rival and predecessor Donald Trump and emphasized that "there is no place for this kind of violence in America."

Trump was injured during an election rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, following what appeared to be a series of gunshots. He was immediately escorted to safety by the Secret Service. "I have been briefed on the shooting at Donald Trump's rally in Pennsylvania. I'm grateful to hear that he's safe and doing well. I'm praying for him and his family and for all those who were at the rally, as we await further information," Biden said in a statement.

Both the Secret Service and Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung stated that the former US president was fine. "He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility," Cheung confirmed.

"Jill and I are grateful to the Secret Service for getting him to safety. There's no place for this kind of violence in America. We must unite as one nation to condemn it," Biden added.

This incident comes as current President Biden faces Trump in the upcoming November presidential elections.
