According to him, everything happened in the area of the Grenelle embankment, near the Eiffel Tower.
“Please avoid this area,” Darmane wrote on Twitter (the social network is blocked in Russia).
Police officers neutralized the attacker. The deceased is a German citizen who arrived on vacation in the French capital.
According to France Press, the attacker was born in France in 1997. He had mental problems. He had already been tried in 2016 for planning another attack and was under the supervision of the French security services. In addition, the detainee told the police that he was “upset” by the situation in the Gaza Strip.
