On 14 February 2019, a terrorist vehicle-ramming and stabbing took place in Karinthus, [[Vothetria]]. A van was deliberately driven into pedestrians on Vigar Bridge before hitting the side of a building and stopping in the middle of Florist Walk. Its seven occupants then began stabbing people in and around restaurants and pubs, the most notable being the Flazelle. The attackers were Kostoria-Obertonian nationals inspired by The Southern Auroran Front (TSAF). Six out of seven were shot dead by Karinthus Police officers, the last returned to the van and detonated a previously unknown IED. 77 people were killed and 153 were injured, including members of the public and four armed police officers.▼
