stabbed a 24-year-old German-Filipino tourist, before attacking two more as-yet-unnamed victims, including a British father.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Armand Rajabpour-Miyandoab, 26, a French national born to Iranian parents, was arrested at the scene on Saturday after he used a knife and hammer during the violent rampage near the Eiffel Tower.<\/p>\n<p>Rajabpour-Miyandoab, who is a known radical Islamist, shouted &#8216;Allahu Akbar&#8217; &#8211; Arabic for &#8216;God is greatest&#8217; &#8211; and professed his support for ISIS as he embarked on his vicious attack, according to Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin.<\/p>\n<p>The 26-year-old had previously been sentenced in 2016 to four years in prison for a failed attack in the Paris business district of La Defense, and Darmanin confirmed the suspect had officially been on an &#8216;S-list&#8217;, for surveillance.<\/p>\n<p>Terrorism prosecutors told French news agency AFP on Sunday they were investigating the knife and hammer attacker, who<span>\u00a0is suspected of murder and attempted murder &#8216;in connection with a terrorist plot&#8217;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/03\/10\/78519933-12819571-image-a-22_1701598253717.jpg\" height=\"841\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Armand Rajabpour-Miyandoab, 26, (pictured) was released from prison in 2020, and left to live at home with his parents while undergoing &#8216;psychiatric and neurological treatment&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>T<span>hree people &#8216;close to&#8217; Rajabpour-Miyandoab were being held in custody on Sunday afternoon following the terror incident by Bir Hakeim bridge over the River Seine, prosecutors said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The deadly attack during a busy weekend at around 9pm (8pm in the UK) near the Eiffel Tower came as France is at its highest alert level, as tension rise amid the war between Israel and Hamas.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rajabpour-Miyandoab was let out of prison early in 2020, and left to live at home with his parents, in the Essonne region south of Paris, while undergoing &#8216;psychiatric and neurological treatment&#8217;.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He told police he could not stand Muslims being killed in &#8216;Afghanistan and Palestine&#8217; and accused France of being &#8216;an accomplice to what Israel is doing&#8217; in the Gaza Strip, Darmanin added.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators will scrutinise his medical history, a security source told AFP, saying the attacker was &#8216;very unstable and easily influenced&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Rajabpour-Miyandoab was &#8216;being monitored in a way that did not mean he was being hospitalised, and was supposed to follow a course of treatment&#8217;

terrorist act (of October 7) has worsened the threat,&#8217; saying that &#8216;the threat of Islamist terrorism is acute and serious&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Police and security sources confirmed the attacker had claimed responsibility in a social media video as he struck, speaking about &#8216;current events, the government (and) the murder of innocent Muslims&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>A German-Filipino nurse, 24, suffered a heart attack following the assault in front of his wife and another female friend, as a taxi driver intervened to keep the attacker away from his wife.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Pelloux, an emergency doctor on duty at the time of the attack, said the couple were both nurses, adding that the woman was severely shocked but unhurt.<\/p>\n<p>A 66-year-old British citizen was on holiday in Paris and &#8211; like all the other victims &#8211; was thought to have been a complete stranger to Rajabpour-Miyandoab before a knife was plunged into his right eye.<\/p>\n<p>The terrorist then hit a 60-year-old French father who was out walking with his wife and child around the head with a hammer.<\/p>\n<p>Video of the suspect&#8217;s arrest shows him slowly backing away from several French police officers while carrying what appears to be a hammer.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Two officers stride towards him as he backs away on the corner of a street in Paris.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Following a chase, and the intervention of a taxi driver, Rajabpour-Miyandoab was finally disabled by police using tasers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rousseau told broadcaster France 3 that the wounded victims suffered only &#8216;superficial (physical) traumas, but of course psychological traumas that will be enormous&#8217;.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday both surviving victims were still undergoing medical care &#8211;
