The number of identified victims in Sunday’s antisemitic attack in Boulder, Colo., has increased to 15 people and one dog, the FBI announced on Wednesday.

“The victims range from 25 to 88 years old, eight female and seven male,” the FBI wrote.

The accused perpetrator is a 45-year-old Egyptian, “who had overstayed his visa in the United States and remained in the country unlawfully since 2022,” according to the Trump administration.

Kristi Noem, U.S. secretary of homeland security, said on Wednesday that she directed federal agencies to “ramp up” crackdowns on those who overstay their visas in response.

Gideon Sa’ar urged unity, and warned that violence in Judea and Samaria is damaging ties with Israel’s closest friends.
“Perhaps he will stop his relentless incitement, hatred and blood libels against the State of Israel,” the Israeli consul general in New York stated.
