Jewish man opens fire on Palestinians in Miami
In Miami, USA, Mordechai Brafman, 27, attacked two men he thought were Palestinians. He was captured on surveillance cameras firing 17 shots into the victims' car. Two people were injured in the attack, but both survived.
Brafman initially said during questioning, "I saw two Palestinians, I opened fire and I killed them both." He has been charged with two counts of attempted murder. Investigators are currently investigating whether to classify the attack as a hate crime.
Representatives of Muslim organizations, including Amr Ruiz of CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) in Florida, argue that the attack should be classified as a hate crime because it was carried out based on ethnic or religious hatred.
