French forensic police officers work at the scene of a stabbing attack in the 'Jardins de l'Europe' park in Annecy, in the French Alps, on June 8, 2023. A Syrian refugee suspected of stabbing six people in the French Alpine town of Annecy on Thursday did not appear to have a "terrorist motive", the local prosecutor told reporters. Prosecutor Line Bonnet-Mathis said that of the four children injured in the assault, one was aged just 22 months, two were two-year-olds, and the eldest was three.
