He expressed confidence that U.S. authorities will bring the attacker, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, to justice. Soliman allegedly used a makeshift flamethrower and incendiary devices while shouting “Free Palestine,” according to the FBI.
Netanyahu linked the attack to a global rise in antisemitism fueled by false accusations against Israel, calling for urgent action to stop it.
The victims, aged 52 to 88, were hospitalized with several seriously injured.
