**FBI Investigates Boulder Attack on Pro-Israel Rally as Terrorism; Six Injured**
**Boulder, CO -** The FBI is investigating an attack outside a mall in Boulder, Colorado, as a targeted act of terrorism. The incident occurred near Pearl Street Mall, where a group of Israeli supporters were rallying to raise awareness for hostages held in Gaza.
According to the FBI, 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman allegedly threw Molotov cocktails at the demonstrators. Video footage circulating online shows Soliman, identified as an Egyptian national who overstayed his visa, yelling “Free Palestine” and anti-Zionist slogans during the attack.
At least six people were injured in the attack. Soliman, who reportedly entered the U.S. on a non-immigrant visa in August 2022 and overstayed, was taken into custody and is also receiving medical treatment for minor injuries.
Law enforcement officials have not yet announced formal charges but have stated they intend to hold Soliman accountable. The attack is being investigated as an act of ideologically motivated violence, according to the FBI.
This incident follows a recent fatal shooting in Washington where two Israeli embassy staffers were killed by a man claiming he did it “for Palestine.” The Justice Department has condemned the attack in Boulder as a “needless act of violence.”
Colorado Governor Jared Polis has stated he is closely monitoring the situation, emphasizing that hate-filled acts are unacceptable.
