One of them was a 23 year old sister at her witnessing cart, she was stabbed in the throat and died very soon thereafter :   Read more:  

So upsetting As soon as I saw the cart clearly visible in this photograph of the aftermath of this awful attack we wondered if any of the brothers & sisters had been targets. Hardly any coverage i

I've followed this story right from the beginning & it is 100% correct The sister's death was reported on JW.ORG but seems to have been taken down.

This man tried to save her - he was interviewed by the BBC The attacker appears to have targeted this sister by the cart 1st before stabbing other women.

@Julie Bayley I see what appears to have the colors of the JW logo and some form of picture but it does not quite look like a cart. It looks more like a garbage container to me. Do you know if there is a better picture somewhere?

This is the link that was put up on JW. org

https://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/finland/jehovahs-witnesses-offer-comfort-after-attack-turku/#?insight[search_id]=97da99fc-578e-46f9-927c-6fd76aca5c29&insight[search_result_index]=

This article is still posted.  Also, it was a general announcement a few weeks ago at our Kingdom Hall that they let us know, the organization was having a special meeting in Finland to discuss this attack.   The photos you are seeing on this post are on CNN, NBC, all the national big new carriers from the USA and all the big ones in Europe that carried the story. Could be all over, but I only read English.  

This is not the first time a witness was killed. It is by far not the last. There are many countries were are hunted and persecuted, jailed.  This will continue until the end.  "Then people will hand you over to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all of the nations on account of my name. "  Matthew 24: 9.   This is the Sermon On The Mount.  Matthew 24 is an excellent chapter in which Jesus taught his followers about the time of the end.  

Maybe you can clarify as to what you mean by more factual?  Are you looking for News posts?  It was a shock in Finland, as it is known for low crime in general. But two people died there that day, another person who was in the crowd.  Many were stabbed.  

As a Jehovah's Witness, we know and are taught we are NOT exempt from the terror, pain, sickness, yes and attacks of the world.   We ask for Jehovah's  spirt in the name of Jesus Christ, to comfort us and to give us endurance. We know this world is temporary.  Someday, we will see our sister again!   If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer. Please post.  Thank you, Kristy

@Julie Bayley Yes I too have been following this event. As well as others. I noticed some discrepancies in the story. I find that the names of the victims being withheld is suspect. Then the paramedic is said in the bbc article to have been stabbed 4 times in the neck and chest and yet in videos he only has his arm in a sling and a few bandaid gauzes on his arm. Those are contradictions. Also an 'eyewitness' on a radio program said it was a huge knife but the person could not describe the attacker. That is suspicious right there. Then I saw in a video a woman on the scene as a paramedic laughing with a group she was standing with near the fire trucks. Then we have the arraignment 'hearing' where the media was allowed in. If you saw that video the 'attacker' was supposedly in the hospital. What you saw was a tv screen with the attacker under blankets and the lawyer had a Picture in picture screen covering his face. That again is suspicious. All the authorities looked guilty on tv as well. Like they are involved in a scam.

Then the day after the attack the org put up a 'breaking news' article but then took it down only to replace it weeks later with the recent one.

This whole thing has a stench about it.

@USASister I pretty much explained what I mean by more factual in my last post. I am an avid current events observer. I have been seeing alot of news reports that just are not actual real events. This one has the same oddities which leans to not having any credibility. This could have some pretty serious implications. In order to know what I am talking about one has to really check out the current events called news events and check for oddities in them. Only then can one know what I am saying. Until one does that they will just accept what they are being told from tv.

@Kurt Thank You Kurt, I looked at the sources but none of them seemed to name the victim. Also that photo on facebook could be anyone there is no way to confirm her as a witness. If she was at a Kingdom hall then maybe that would be better proof. Maybe I missed something due to the language differences.

    • By the way, if you're into stuff like this, you might wanna check out https://thepythagoras.com/. They have some neat articles about ancient civilizations and their contributions to science and math. It’s really interesting how much we owe to these early thinkers.
    • The Dendera Zodiac is such an amazing piece of history. Imagine ancient Egyptians looking up at the same stars we do now and creating this detailed map. It's mind-blowing! So, what do I think about it? I think it's a fascinating blend of art and astronomy. Those ancient folks really knew their stuff. The way they incorporated their gods and mythologies into the constellations is just brilliant. And it's not just about the stars, it’s a glimpse into how they viewed the universe and their place in it.
    • FIFA's collaboration with Algorand represents a significant milestone for blockchain technology. Algorand will serve as the official blockchain platform for FIFA, supporting events such as the FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This partnership is poised to enhance FIFA's digital asset management while boosting Algorand's visibility through advertising and promotional opportunities. On another note, I've been tuning into African football recently. The match between Kanifing East FC and Latrikunda United was unexpectedly impressive. African football often goes underappreciated, yet the skill and enthusiasm in these matches are evident. We can expect even more significant development and excitement in African football with increased attention and support.
