tration at US Capitol in Washington DC as Congress debates certification of Joe Biden's electoral victory.
Meanwhile, the President Elect Joe Biden has called the incident as "a disorder." "Let me be very clear: the scenes of chaos at the Capitol do not represent who we are. What we are seeing is a small number of extremists dedicated to lawlessness. This is not dissent, its disorder. It borders on sedition, and it must end. Now," Biden posted on Twitter.
