Police Shoot and Wound Woman Threatening in Paris Metro

French police shot and seriously wounded an unarmed veiled woman who was making threats and shouting "Allahu akbar" at a train station in Paris. The incident occurred during morning rush hour and heightened tensions due to the Israel-Hamas war. Witnesses reported that the woman shouted "you will all die" and ignored police orders to remain still. Two police officers fired eight rounds at the woman, causing a life-threatening injury. No explosives or weapons were found on her. Investigations have been launched to determine the woman's actions and whether the police's use of firearms was justified. France has been on high alert since a teacher was stabbed to death by an Islamist former pupil, and there have been numerous bomb alerts and antisemitic acts in recent weeks.
