00:00What we can confirm is that the perpetrator is now identified and it is actually an 18-year-old
00:13with an Austrian citizenship, according to my knowledge, who is a resident in Austria.
00:17I would like to ask for your understanding about the motive.
00:21The investigations are still ongoing here.
00:23It is only a matter of time before someone parks here in sight of the Israeli consul general
