The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for a knife attack at a diversity festival in Solingen, Germany, which resulted in the deaths of three individuals and injuries to eight others. The attack, described by local officials as an act of terror, occurred on August 23, and ISIS stated it was carried out in 'revenge for Muslims in Palestine and everywhere'. While a 15-year-old boy has been detained for potential knowledge of the attack, the main perpetrator remains at large. Police are conducting a manhunt and have made a second arrest linked to the incident at a refugee shelter. Witnesses reported that the attacker made threats before the assault, and authorities have confirmed the nature of the attacks was particularly targeted. The tragic event has sparked discussion about multiculturalism in Germany, with some political figures exploiting the tragedy for their agendas.
