Terrorists reportedly checked ID cards and pulled down tourists' pants to check their religious identity, shooting them at point blank on being non-Muslim.
The suspect was arrested. France's national anti-terror prosecutors unit (PNAT), which has taken charge of the investigation, said the suspect first attacked the municipal police officers, shouting "Allahu Akbar" (God is greatest).
According to journalist Tim Röhn, the attacker has been identified as Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen. He informed that Taleb openly posted threats on X but the platform did not act against the terrorist.
Harbhajan Singh had previously highlighted security issues in Pakistan and stated that Indian players should refrain from travelling to the country for the 2025 Champions Trophy.
The Israeli Defense Forces pointed out that the attack was indeed carried out by Hezbollah from Chebaa village in Lebanon as determined by its assessment and intelligence.
