Muslims deplore France factory attack

Muslims rushed to condemn the extremist attack as contradicting with Islamic tenets of peace

 

Receiving the shocking news of Friday’s attack on a French factory, Muslims rushed to condemn the extremist attack as contradicting with Islamic tenets of peace.

Friday’s incident occurred around 10 am, when reports indicate that two suspects allegedly rammed their way into the US-owned Air Products gas factory outside of Lyon, in southeastern France.

Officials found a decapitated body and head, which was covered in Arabic writing, near the factory, but it is unclear if the corpse was transported to the site or the mutilation took place during the attack.

There are also reports of a flag with Arabic writing found at the scene.

French President Francois Hollande said in a televised address from a summit in Brussels, Belgium, that the incident was a “pure terrorist attack.”

France attack coincided with other two attacks on Kuwait and Tunisia which resulted in the death of scores of Muslims on Friday while fasting.
