Former U.S. Army major and psychiatrist Nidal Malik Hasan is set to face execution by firing squad following approval from President Donald Trump. Hasan was convicted of premeditated murder in 2013 for a 2009 mass shooting at the Fort Hood military base in Texas.

The 2009 attack resulted in the deaths of 13 people and left more than 30 others injured. Hasan was subsequently sentenced to death for his role in the massacre, a penalty that has now been authorized to be carried out via firing squad.
