The ISIS-inspired Port Authority bombing suspect was trying to exact revenge for Israeli actions in Gaza, according to a new report.

Akayed Ullah, a Bangladeshi immigrant living in Brooklyn, allegedly told cops that he wanted vengeance for attacks in the Palestinian territory — where four people have been killed by Israeli forces amid violent protests and airstrikes since President Trump declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel last week, CNN reports, citing a police source.

Police sources previously said he wanted revenge for attacks in his own country.

Ullah, 27, injured himself and wounded a handful of others when he allegedly detonated a homemade explosive device underground near the Port Authority Bus Terminal on Monday morning.

He was in police custody.
