The perpetrator was arrested, and the police found his identity papers in the name of Moussa Coulibaly, said le Figaro.
The soldiers were providing security protection, when they were attacked, as part of France's Vigipirate plan in front of a building housing the Jewish Consistory of Nice, Radio Shalom and Jewish association.
The anti-terrorism section of the Nice prosecutor office has begun an investigation.
