A video appeared in the Italian and Israeli media, yesterday, Sunday and today, of a young man following an Israeli tourist, and when she reached the automatic ticket machine of a station called the central Termini in Rome, to buy one with which she would take the train to the airport to return to Tel Aviv, he attacked her with a knife and stabbed her in the stomach and back, then fled the scene and left her screaming and screaming for help.
The police did not mention the tourist except that he was 24 years old, and carried a red backpack on his shoulders, while the stabber’s head was covered by a black hat, and he was holding a blue nylon bag, and he reached Saturday night at a quarter to ten, so he wrapped his arm around her neck from the back as she buys the ticket, then stabbed her in the upper stomach and sideways back. (Al-Arabiya.net refrains from publishing the video due to its violent content).
An ambulance soon arrived and the stabbed man was taken to a hospital, whose doctors found that “his condition is quite critical, due to a small rupture in the liver, and the same in the lung, but in a less serious, which makes his conditions stable “, as summarized by Al-Arabiya.net in a consolidated report published by news sites. Several Italians, and it was said that the police are currently examining what was taken by an internal surveillance camera at the station, in addition to what was reported by eyewitnesses.
According to the video, the tourist stood up and tried to resist her stab by hitting him no matter what, then attacked her back to stab her a third stab, but she walked away pressing her hands to her stomach in pain, then the attacker left the place and disappeared, leaving the police to try to find out the reason for his action. As far as the local media are concerned, it is likely that what happened was an “operation” carried out by an Arab immigrant in Italy, or a botched armed robbery, or the gesture of an imbecile, noting that no statement has been released by any official Israeli party so far.
