In Boulder, Colorado on Sunday, a man attacked members of a Jewish community group advocating for the release of hostages in Gaza. The suspect, identified as Mohamed Sabry Soliman, reportedly used a makeshift flamethrower and threw incendiary devices into the crowd, injuring 12 people. Witnesses reported that the suspect shouted “Free Palestine!” during the attack, and police found over a dozen unlit Molotov cocktails in Soliman’s vicinity after his arrest. Soliman is now in custody facinghate crime, murder, and assault charges among others, and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel said the incident is being investigated as a “targeted terror attack.”
