On Wednesday, November 5, a brutal attack took place in western France, when a man intentionally drove his car into several pedestrians and cyclists, injuring ten people, several of whom are in critical condition. The incident occurred on a road between Dolus-d'Oléron and Saint-Pierre-d'Oléron, on the island of Charente-Maritime.


Sources cited by Le Figaro indicate that gas canisters were found in the trunk of the suspect's car, a piece of information that is currently being verified. After the attack, the man attempted to set his vehicle on fire but was arrested by gendarmes, shouting 'Allahu Akbar.' The local mayor mentioned that the suspect was known to the authorities for abnormal behavior and alcohol problems. The French Minister of the Interior was urgently sent to the island of Oléron to assess the situation, and the authorities have opened an investigation to determine the motives for the attack.
