A Saudi doctor with anti-Islam views drove into a Magdeburg Christmas market, killing five. Investigations are ongoing as the tragedy stirs Germany's immigration and security debates.
Authorities are investigating a Saudi doctor with a history of anti-Islam rhetoric as the suspected driver in a car-ramming attack on Magdeburg's Christmas market, which left five dead and dozens injured.
The suspect, a 50-year-old psychiatrist, was arrested at the scene after using emergency exits to reach the market and then speeding into the crowd.
Victims include a nine-year-old child and four adults, with 41 others seriously or critically injured.
Authorities are unclear on the motive but are exploring frustration over Germany’s treatment of Saudi refugees. Posts on the suspect’s verified X account showed support for anti-Islam and far-right parties, including AfD.
