Knife Attack Outside Israeli Embassy in Belgrade Ends with Assailant Shot DeadPreviousNext

In Belgrade, an unidentified minor attacked a guard outside the Israeli embassy with knives shortly after midnight and was shot dead by Serbian police. The attacker reportedly shouted 'Allahu Akbar' and was linked to the Islamic State group, with authorities raising the terror threat to the highest level and increasing security. The police officer was lightly wounded. This incident follows a previous attack on the embassy guard in June 2024 and comes amid recent parliamentary elections in Serbia and Israel.
