Colorado Flamethrower Assault: 8 Injured as Suspect Shouts 'Free Palestine'

A man wielding a homemade flamethrower shouted “Free Palestine” while launching an incendiary object into a crowd advocating for Israeli hostages in Gaza, according to law enforcement reports on Sunday. The incident left eight individuals injured, aged between 52 and 88, with injuries ranging from critical to minor. This disturbing assault took place as members of the volunteer organization Run For Their Lives were wrapping up their weekly demonstration aimed at enhancing awareness for the hostages still located in Gaza. The perpetrator, identified as 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman, has since been detained at the Boulder County jail in northern Denver. In related news, 31 Palestinians reportedly perished while en route to a Gaza aid facility, amid Israel's denial of any involvement.
