Part 4/9:
Christmas Market Attack: A devastating incident occurred on December 20, 2024, when an SUV was driven into a crowded Christmas market in MURG, resulting in six fatalities and nearly 300 injuries. Contradicting prior security strategies, the attacker, a psychologist known to authorities, exploited gaps in safety measures. Despite numerous warnings from Saudi Arabian officials, German authorities dismissed them as politically motivated.
Knife Attack in Bavaria: On January 22, 2025, another attack involved a 20-year-old Afghan man who fatally stabbed a child and an intervening adult in a Bavarian park. The involvement of mentally ill asylum seekers sparked further outrage regarding Germany's handling of immigration and security protocols.
