French police shot and killed a man armed with a knife and a metal bar who is suspected of having started a fire that charred and blackened the insides of a synagogue in the Normandy city of Rouen early on Friday 17 May. Interior minister Gerald Darmanin said the attack was clearly antisemitic, while it infuriated Jewish leaders facing a surge in hate crimes since the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war. The suspected arsonist was an Algerian national who wasnt flagged as a suspected extremist, Mr Darmanin said after inspecting the fire-damaged synagogue. Footage from inside the synagogue shows the window through which the Molotov Cocktail was thrown.
