The terrorist Ibrahim al-Awisawi, who attacked a church in Nice, sent a photo to his family in front of this cathedral. Al Arabiya reported.
It is noted that the terrorist contacted his family shortly before the attack, sending his brother a photo in front of the Notre Dame Basilica. Ibrahim announced that he was going to spend the night not far from her. The family's neighbors in the city of Sfax noted that the young man, in their opinion, was not inclined to extremism.
On October 29, an attack in Nice killed three people. The knife attack was carried out by a Tunisian in the church of Notre Dame de Nice. According to updated information, the throats of two victims were cut, but the attacker did not completely decapitate them.
It is alleged that Ibrahim al-Awisawi previously did not come to the attention of the police, but at the same time had connections with an international terrorist organization. It is known that he shouted “Allahu Akbar!” and continued to repeat these words even after his arrest.
The Mayor of Nice considered the armed attack a terrorist act and a manifestation of “Islamofascism”. He announced the arrest of the attacker and thanked the police officers for their prompt action.
The incident took place 13 days after the teacher was beheaded in a suburb of Paris.
