COLORADO: Several people were injured after a man threw a petrol bomb at a group of people participating in a pro-Israel demonstration in Colorado in the US on Sunday. The FBI, America's federal law enforcement agency, stated that it was a "terrorist attack targeting demonstrators." The attack occurred during a protest demanding the release of Israelis held captive in Gaza. Reports say that the attacker has been taken into custody.

The victims were members of the Jewish community. The attacker, who appeared shirtless, threw a petrol bomb at the peaceful protestors while shouting slogans such as "Free Palestine," "Death to Zionists," and "These people are murderers."

The incident took place around 1.30 PM local time on Sunday. The attack occurred during a peaceful demonstration in a densely populated area. Various reports indicate that several of the injured are in critical condition. FBI Director Kash Patel stated that FBI personnel and local law enforcement officers were present at the scene and that more information would be released in the coming hours.

As the investigation is ongoing, authorities have urged the public to vacate the area. District Attorney Michael Dougherty stated that serious charges would be filed against the attacker. The FBI confirmed that six individuals aged between 67 and 88 were targeted, with some suffering severe injuries.
