Swiss Woman Killed in Attack by Algerian shouting "Allahu Akbar"

[Social Media]

 

A knife-wielding attacker reportedly shouting "Allahu Akbar" and "Long live Palestine" fatally wounded a Swiss tourist in a brutal attack in Algeria, leaving her three children and a friend devastated. The incident occurred on October 11 at the Scanner café terrace in Djanet, a popular tourist destination in southern Algeria. The woman, whose identity remains undisclosed, was attacked while seated with her family and a friend in the bustling city center of Djanet.

 

The assailant, described as a young man from northern Algeria, approached and slit the woman’s throat. She was rushed to the hospital but succumbed to her injuries after losing significant blood, according to reports from Swiss broadcaster RTS. Although the exact motive remains unknown, witnesses stated that the attacker shouted "Allahu Akbar," which means "God is greatest," as well as “Long live Palestine” during the assault.

 

Following the attack, the man quickly fled the scene. In response, Algerian authorities launched a sweeping manhunt, enlisting helicopters and distributing the attacker’s photo to the public. After an intense search, he was apprehended several days later. According to RTS, the man had previously attempted to assault another group of tourists at a local market on the same day but was repelled before he could cause any harm. Locals reported that he had been living in Djanet for six months and was dressed in the style of a "Tuareg," a nomadic ethnic group native to the Sahara.

 

The incident was initially reported by Swiss media but did not gain widespread coverage until it was reported by French newspaper *Libération*. Switzerland's foreign ministry has since confirmed the tragic event, noting it is aware of “the violent death of a Swiss citizen on October 11 in southeastern Algeria.” Authorities also clarified that they have assisted the victim's children and her friend, arranging for their safe return to Switzerland. However, they refrained from disclosing additional details out of respect for the family’s privacy.

 

Algerian authorities have chosen to stay silent on the matter, even advising locals to avoid posting or sharing information about the attack on social media. Reports suggest that this incident has dealt a heavy blow to Algeria’s ongoing efforts to boost tourism, particularly in the Sahara region. Djanet, known for its striking landscapes and cultural heritage, has recently been at the center of the government's promotional campaigns aimed at positioning Algeria as a tourist-friendly destination. Just last year, the country welcomed 2.5 million visitors—the highest figure in two decades—signaling progress for the tourism sector. Algeria’s push for increased tourism comes as the government actively works with ANEP, its media and advertisement agency, to promote the Sahara region as a safe, attractive destination.

 

Despite Algeria’s push for tourism, the country’s past struggles with violence loom large. In the 1990s, Algeria experienced a bloody civil war following the electoral success of the Islamic Salvation Front (FIS), a group advocating for an Islamic state.

 

Tensions escalated as the FIS clashed with government forces, igniting a conflict that left tens of thousands dead, with Islamist groups bearing much of the responsibility for the casualties. Although Algeria has made strides in stabilizing and reviving its tourism sector, incidents like the recent tragedy in Djanet reveal the challenges that persist as the nation attempts to reshape its image on the global stage.

It would be interesting how many died in attacks by non-Muslims in that time?

(Already more than 100.000 the last months by Israel and more even by Putin) Add Iraqis and others attacked by US. Only some examples.

Not many is it. Over 4 decades.

 

The Christians in Russia have doe more than that in the last 3 years.

The Jews in the last year have done about 45,000

The American Christians and their allies have killed millions since the seventies, in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq etc.

You are certainly quoting pretty disturbing figures.

 

I don’t stand for any particular side.

But I also noticed something  quite shocking.

 

One president from the Free World killed 280,771-315,190 Iraqi civilians since 911 out of own greed; in the unprovoked  invasion for Oil.

 

As well as the US and allies servicemen; 7057 from the direct conflict.

30177 of US soldiers and veterans suicide deaths after their return(mostly by 

PTSD due to their wartime experience).

 

Iraqi Civilians | Costs of War

 

US & Allied Killed | Costs of War

 

Civilians Killed & Wounded | Costs of War

 

Islamic fundamentalists & the West.

 

Both look evenly brutal.

I don't care how they think, how different they are and think, just one thing ... Stay away from my country, go back and live what your religion tells you, no problem as long as you're far away. The Swiss family went into their domain, yes that's something you should think twice. European immigration laws are going to change in more and more countries, it is too late yes, but at least something will change in the right direction.

Well, that's how you personally find it.

However, the Islam is NOT a violent religion. Read about it and you will not use prejudices and stereotypes.

Interesting that they identify the assailant as Tuareg. Very convenient.

Really??

We are told Islam is a religion of peace; anyone telling you that is just engaged in uninformed, wishful thinking or is deliberately trying to deceive you.

Islam is not a religion of peace at all; the perpetrators of terrorism are following the edicts clearly given in the Surahs (verses) that constitute the Quran, their holy book.

The word Islam means submission.

The Quran dictates repeatedly that its followers must convert you to Islam or kill you if you refuse to convert.

Much of the Quran speaks not about religion but only about how one must submit; it commands how one must live, dress, treat women and slaves, and practice jihad.

VERSES TELL THE TALE

The Quran is replete with Surahs directing its followers to violence.

Some examples follow:

Surah 3:151: "We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve (all non-Muslims) …"

Surah 2:191: "And kill them (non-Muslims) wherever you find them … kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers (non-Muslims)."

Surah 9:5: "Then kill the disbelievers (non-Muslims) wherever you find them, capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush …"

These numbers are given by a terrorist organisation named hamas and has not been vetted by any international body.

Another point is that Israel has REACTED to an unprovoked attack against civilians - 1200 who were slaughtered by that very same terrorist group. Most of those who died in Gaza were terrorists, and the few civilians who got caught in the fire were actually used by hamas terrorists as human shields.

After all, very few people in the world with True White Hands.

Capitalists, Socialists/Communists regimes.

Christians, Muslims, Judaists, and Buddhists.

All directly or indirectly perpetrators and victims at the same time or from time to time.

The worst sufferers are often the powerless among any groups.

Mostly, children, having no voices/choices, but forced to bear all the hardship imposed by someone else  a lot more powerful than them.
