French interior minister denounces arson attack on Muslim prayer hall
(MENAFN) French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau condemned an attempted arson at a Muslim prayer hall in Châtillon-sur-Seine, eastern France, on Friday.
“Last night in Châtillon-sur-Seine, individuals tried to set fire to a Muslim prayer hall. My thoughts are with the worshippers affected by this deeply cowardly anti-Muslim act,” Retailleau wrote on social media platform X.
Reports indicate that attackers wedged burning leaflets into the prayer hall’s front door, though passers-by quickly extinguished the flames, broadcaster France Info said. A formal complaint has been filed, but the suspects remain unidentified.
