### Molotov Cocktail Attack at Pro-Israel Rally in Boulder Leads to Federal Hate Crime Charges

A 45-year-old man has been charged with a federal hate crime following a Molotov cocktail attack on pro-Israel demonstrators in Boulder, Colorado. The suspect, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, is accused of throwing incendiary devices at the rally, shouting "Free Palestine!" during the assault.

As of Monday afternoon, Boulder District Attorney Michael Dougherty reported that the number of injured victims had risen to 12. Although there have been no fatalities, local authorities confirmed that multiple individuals sustained burns, with at least two people remaining hospitalized.

Attorney General Pam Bondi responded strongly to the attack, stating, "We will never tolerate this kind of hatred. We refuse to accept a world in which Jewish Americans are targeted for who they are and what they believe." President Trump also weighed in, stating that such acts "will not be tolerated."

The incident, which took place on Sunday, has been classified as terrorism by local police. FBI Denver Special Agent in Charge Mark Michalek disclosed that Soliman was armed with what witnesses described as "a makeshift flamethrower." The attack occurred near a rally that demanded the release of hostages held by Hamas in Gaza.

Law enforcement officials are continuing their investigation into the events on Pearl Street Mall, emphasizing the serious nature of the attack and its broader implications for public safety and national security.
