A Colorado court sentences Mohamed Soliman, a 46-year-old Egyptian national, to life in prison without the possibility of parole after he pleads guilty to charges connected to a firebombing attack on a pro-Israel demonstration in Boulder. Multiple reports say the attack occurred in 2025 and involved Molotov cocktails and gasoline bombs thrown at people gathered to show support for Israeli hostages held by Hamas following the group’s Oct. 2023 assault on Israel. Prosecutors and reports describe the attack as killing one person and injuring more than a dozen others.
According to Reuters coverage cited by outlets, Soliman pleads guilty in state court to all charges he faced, including first-degree murder. The sentencing hearing takes place in Boulder County Court, where he is reported to have admitted to a range of offenses tied to the incident. The judge’s sentence is life imprisonment with no parole, based on the fatal outcome and the injuries caused during the attack. The reports present the case as part of broader attention on violence targeting demonstrators.
