The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant claimed in its Telegram channel on Saturday that one of its members was behind the deadly mass stabbing at the 650th anniversary celebration of the city of Solingen, Germany, which left three dead and eight injured on Friday night.
“The perpetrator of the attack on a group of the Christians in the town of Solingen in Germany yesterday is a soldier of the Islamic State and he carried out the attack in revenge for the Muslims in Palestine and every place,” the statement read.
It is unclear if the perpetrator was a member of the group and authorities are still searching for suspects.
