Federal officials have classified the March 12 attack on Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan, as a Hezbollah-inspired act of terrorism carried out by Ayman Mohamad Ghazali, who drove a gasoline- and fireworks-laden truck into the synagogue before opening fire and dying by suicide. Ghazali, motivated by recent Israeli drone strikes that killed his family members linked to Hezbollah, had planned the attack for days, purchasing weapons and expressing intentions of revenge and martyrdom in videos sent to his sister. The attack caused significant fire damage and injuries but no fatalities besides Ghazali, prompting increased security at Jewish sites nationwide as investigations continue.
