September 17, 2019A 34-year-old soldier was shot in the back and wounded by a 23-year-old Yemeni national. The incident took place outside Milan Central Station, in Piazza Duca d'Aosta. The attacker was arrested and according to some witnesses when he was immobilized he would have shouted "Allah Akbar".

The conditions of the military are not serious. Now the Carabinieri Information Unit is checking whether the young man has acted on impulse or whether he has been driven by terrorist aims. From what emerged yesterday evening the attacker had been denounced because he was trying to hit some people with a pen, still in the area of ​​the Central Station.

"The subject was promptly immobilized by the soldiers thanks to the techniques acquired during training in the military combat method", the Army writes in a note.
