The Cybertruck Bomb attack took place on New Year's Day in 2025, outside the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas. The incident involved a Tesla Cybertruck that was packed with fireworks, gas canisters, camp fuel canisters, and large firework mortars, which exploded, killing the driver, Matthew Livelsberger, an active-duty U.S. Army soldier and member of the Green Berets. Livelsberger appears to have committed suicide by shooting himself before the explosion. The explosion resulted in minor injuries to seven people. Still, it caused virtually no damage to the hotel itself due to the design of the Cybertruck, which absorbed much of the blast.

According to investigations, Livelsberger left behind letters expressing personal and political grievances, describing the attack as a "wake-up call" for the country. However, he explicitly stated it was not meant as a terrorist attack. These letters were found on a phone in the vehicle, and authorities are still analyzing a large volume of data to understand the full context of the event. There has been no definitive link established between this incident and a similar truck attack in New Orleans that occurred on the same day, despite some coincidental similarities, such as both attackers being military personnel who rented vehicles through the same app.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and the FBI have stressed that there is currently no evidence suggesting the incident was ideologically motivated. However, the location and vehicle type have not gone unnoticed. The investigation continues to determine a clear motive for Livelsberger's actions.
