The 26-year-old Syrian refugee, well-informed about Germany’s legal intricacies, is suspected of having received guidance from either a lawyer or the refugee council, enabling him to manipulate asylum deadlines and evade deportation before launching his deadly attack.
Solingen, Germany – In a meticulously planned Islamic terror attack, Issa al Hasan, a 26-year-old Syrian refugee affiliated with ISIS, murdered three people and injured eight others during the city’s 650th anniversary “Festival of Diversity.” The jihad attack, which took place on a Friday evening in the heart of Solingen, has once again “shocked” Germany and highlighted the severe risks posed by the country’s open borders and lax asylum system.
The Attack: A Night of Horror in Solingen
The terror attack unfolded around 9:45 p.m. on Friday evening in Solingen’s bustling Fronhof square. Thousands of residents and visitors had gathered to celebrate the city’s history with live music and festivities. However, the joyous atmosphere quickly turned into chaos when al Hasan, armed with a large knife, began his brutal rampage.
Al Hasan deliberately targeted his victims’ necks, a method explicitly described in Islamic texts intended to strike terror into the hearts of disbelievers. As he carried out the attack, witnesses reported that he was a visitor to a local mosque and heard him shouting “Allahu Akbar.” The media often translates this as “God is great,” but this is misleading. “Akbar” means “greater” or “greatest,” specifically referring to Allah, highlighting His supremacy over all other deities. Understanding it merely as “God is great” misses this critical context. “Allahu Akbar” has historically been a battle cry in Islamic warfare, including modern terror attacks, reinforcing the religious motivation behind the attack.
The method of attack aligns with verses from the Quran that jihadists often cite as justification for their actions. For instance, Quran 8:12 states, “When your Lord inspired to the angels, ‘I am with you, so strengthen those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip.’” Similarly, Quran 47:4 instructs, “So when you meet those who disbelieve, strike necks…” Muslims cite these verses as their divine commands to commit acts of violence against non-believers, which al Hasan followed during his deadly Islamic rampage.
Three people—a 67-year-old man, a 56-year-old man, and a 56-year-old woman—lost their lives, and eight others were critically injured. Rescue workers swiftly arrived on the scene, but four of the injured remain in critical condition, battling for their lives.
Immediate Response and Manhunt
The attack triggered a massive manhunt involving special forces from across North Rhine-Westphalia. The area was quickly cordoned off, and heavily armed police, supported by over 40 specialized vehicles and helicopters, scoured the city for the fugitive. A blood-stained knife, believed to be the murder weapon, was later discovered in a trash can near the crime scene.
In the course of the investigation, a 15-year-old Kyrgyz youth was arrested after being seen conversing with al Hasan shortly before the attack. The youth is suspected of knowing about the attack in advance and failing to report it, raising concerns about potential radicalization within the local refugee community.
The Arrest: How al Hasan Surrendered
After more than 24 hours on the run, Issa al Hasan turned himself in to a police patrol late Saturday evening. His clothes were reportedly dirty and covered in blood, further implicating him in the crime. North Rhine-Westphalia’s Interior Minister, Herbert Reul, confirmed the arrest and stated that al Hasan is “highly” suspected of the crime, with further evidence found during the investigation.
Reul also mentioned that the search for refugee shelter in Solingen, where al Hasan had been staying, was part of a broader effort to gather intelligence. A strong lead had been pursued all day, leading to al Hasan’s eventual surrender.
Exploiting the Asylum System: A Calculated Deception
New details have emerged about how Issa al Hasan exploited Germany’s asylum system to remain in the country despite clear warning signs. According to sources from BILD, al Hasan used various tactics to manipulate the system. He claimed to have an uncle living in Germany, which authorities could not verify. It is now suspected that this claim was fabricated to strengthen his asylum case, although even if true, it would not have legally prevented his deportation.
Al Hasan was reportedly well-informed about the legal intricacies of the German asylum system. Upon arriving in Germany in 2022, he was supposed to be deported back to Bulgaria, the country where he first arrived in Europe. However, German authorities had only six months to carry out the deportation. If they failed to do so within this period, al Hasan would be allowed to stay in Germany. It appears that al Hasan was fully aware of this deadline.
When immigration authorities attempted to locate al Hasan at his accommodation in Paderborn, he was deliberately absent. According to Philipp Pruy, a specialist lawyer for migration law, had al Hasan gone into hiding or evaded deportation, the transfer period could have been extended from six to 18 months, giving Germany more time to deport him to Bulgaria. However, since al Hasan was only absent once and the authorities did not attempt to deport him again, he was not considered to have gone into hiding. This allowed the six-month period to lapse, after which al Hasan could legally remain in Germany.
Four days after the deadline expired, al Hasan reported to the authorities. He withdrew a lawsuit he had filed earlier against his deportation, suggesting he knew precisely when he was safe from deportation. It remains unclear who provided al Hasan with legal counsel, but speculation is that a refugee council may have assisted him.
Pruy also pointed out a possible error by the responsible immigration authorities, noting that a single attempt to find al Hasan for deportation seems unusually minimal. It is typical for authorities to make several attempts to locate a foreigner for deportation. If al Hasan had not been found multiple times, the authorities could have reported him as having gone into hiding, and the BAMF (Federal Office for Migration and Refugees) could have extended the transfer period to 18 months.
Due to the lax approach by the authorities, al Hasan successfully evaded deportation and was granted subsidiary protection status, allowing him to stay in Germany. He was eventually sent to Solingen, where he carried out the deadly jihad attack at the “Festival of Diversity.”
ISIS Claim and Broader Implications
Shortly after the attack, the Islamic State (ISIS) claimed responsibility, describing Issa al Hasan as one of their soldiers. The terrorist group issued a statement through their mouthpiece Amak, asserting that the attack was carried out in retaliation for perceived injustices against Muslims in Palestine and elsewhere.
This Islamic attack once again raises concerns about the dangers of unchecked immigration and the risks posed by Muslims. The failure to properly vet asylum seekers has allowed jihadis to enter and remain in Germany, which continues to pose a massive threat to national security.
Police Operations and Public Safety Measures
In response to the terror attack, police launched an extensive search operation, including a raid on the refugee shelter in central Solingen. The actions were part of a broader effort to uncover any networks or accomplices that might have supported the jihad attack. State security officers deployed man-tracking dogs to reconstruct the attacker’s escape route, and police requested the public’s assistance in the investigation. Citizens who attended the festival were urged to upload any photos or videos from the event to a specially created online portal to help identify the attacker.
The aftermath of the attack prompted neighboring towns to cancel their weekend festivals out of respect for the victims and due to heightened security concerns. Hilden, set to host a “Festival of Cultures,” and Haan, planning a wine festival, both called off their events in solidarity with Solingen.
Mourning and Public Reaction
The city of Solingen is in mourning. The evening after the attack, hundreds of residents gathered in the pedestrian zone for a memorial service, laying flowers, candles, and messages of solidarity at the site of the tragedy. Solingen’s city dean, Michael Mohr, led the service, stating, “The city is different today than it was yesterday.”
In addition to the memorial service, two funerals have been planned for the victims, with Federal Minister of the Interior Nancy Faeser (SPD), North Rhine-Westphalia’s Prime Minister Hendrik Wüst (CDU), and Interior Minister Herbert Reul expected to attend. These ceremonies will focus on the victims rather than political speeches—yet the presence of these politicians, who have overseen policies that have flooded Germany with dangerous Islamic supremacists, adds a bitter irony. Their continued whitewashing of Islam and refusal to alert citizens to the very real threats it poses to their safety and well-being cannot be ignored.
A Nation on Edge: The Call for Action
The attack in Solingen has shaken Germany to its core, serving as a stark reminder of the ongoing threat posed by Islam and Islamic migrants. The fact that this brutal assault took place at a festival celebrating diversity is a bitter irony, highlighting the dangerous naivety of those who believe in embracing a culture that seeks to undermine Western values.
The Quranic verses that inspired the attack and the battle cry of “Allahu Akbar” used by the terrorists should be a wake-up call for German authorities. The failure to acknowledge the ideological roots of such violence and the role of Islamic teachings, Islam’s holy books, and Islam’s prophet only serves to perpetuate the cycle of terror.
As Germany grapples with this latest Islamic terror attack, there is an urgent need for more robust security measures, tighter border controls, and a more aggressive stance against Islam. The blood spilled at Solingen’s Festival of Diversity should serve as a wake-up call for Germany and all of Europe. It is a call to action—to protect citizens, secure borders, and stand firm against the forces that seek to destroy the Western way of life. The time for complacency is over. The enemy is within, and the time to act is now.
