Officials said the March 12 terrorist attack against a Michigan synagogue was inspired by Hezbollah.

Ayman Ghazali, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Lebanon, shot himself when confronted by security guards at Temple Israel synagogue near Detroit after his explosive-laden truck failed to detonate. Reports shortly after his death revealed his relatives in Hezbollah had been killed in an Israeli airstrike shortly before. Officials now say the militant Shia group directly inspired the attack.
