In the cities of France, a wave of crimes swept through, which apparently occurred on religious grounds.
So, in Nice, an unknown person with a knife attacked citizens near the church. According to preliminary information, he beheaded a woman and killed two more people. The mayor of Nice, Christian Estroza, called the incident a terrorist attack.
— I am at the scene of the incident. I confirm that everything gives reason to assume that the attack inside the Notre-Dame church is a terrorist attack. 13 days after the murder of Samuel Pata, our country can no longer be satisfied with the laws of peace destroyed by Islamofascism, the mayor emphasized.
A few hours later, in Avignon, a man armed with a knife shouted "Allahu akbar!" attacked the policemen with a knife. In response, the law enforcement officers opened fire. The attacker died from his injuries. The police are investigating the incident.
Let us remind you that two weeks ago in the suburbs of Paris, a history teacher who showed caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad to schoolchildren was beheaded.
