Conservative politician and critic of "Islamization," Michael Stürzenberger, was stabbed during a public meeting in Mannheim, Germany. A video showing the attack was posted on social media. At least three people were injured in the incident.

"This could have happened to any of us who understand what is happening. The Islamization of Europe threatens our identity and our lives," French conservative politician Éric Zemmour wrote on X.

The video also shows the moment when a police officer was attacked from behind.

Meanwhile, Chancellor Olaf Scholz spoke out about what happened and stated that violence is unacceptable.

"My thoughts are with the victims. Violence is absolutely unacceptable in our democracy. The perpetrator must be severely punished," Scholz wrote in X.

German Interior Minister Nancy Fraeser said that they are investigating the situation. She claimed that there is a possibility that it may have been an Islamist terror attack.

"If the investigation reveals an Islamist motive, it will be a further confirmation of the great danger posed by Islamist acts of violence, against which we have warned," she said in a statement, in which she called the attack a terrible crime.

The German Police confirmed the incident, as reported by The Telegraph. "A police spokeswoman confirmed the incident in Baden-Württemberg and said there was no danger to other people involved in the incident. There were reports that the attack was broadcast online because Mr. Stürzenberger was live-streaming the protest," The Telegraph detailed.

"A rescue helicopter was deployed during the incident, which police described as a large scale operation," the media reported.

Likewise, the citizen movement Pax Europa issued a statement confirming that Stürzenberger and other members of the party had been attacked.
