Summary
A Saudi doctor intentionally drove into a crowded Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, killing five people, including a child, and injuring over 200.
The 50-year-old suspect, who had lived in Germany for nearly two decades, expressed anti-Islam views and supported far-right politics. Authorities believe he acted alone.
The attack shocked Germany, prompting other towns to cancel Christmas markets and increasing security measures nationwide.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz mourned the victims, and a memorial service is planned. Saudi Arabia condemned the attack, calling it a tragedy.
Since when has the far right been the party of driving vehicles into crowds with intent to harm? What is this new, never happened before craziness?
