Germany is in mourning after a driver rammed through a crowd with their car in the eastern German city of Magdeburg as it held Christmas markets. Here's what we know.

Five people have been killed and more than 200 injured after a man allegedly rammed the car he was driving into crowds at a Christmas market in the east German city of Magdeburg on Friday. The suspect in the deadly attack has been charged with numerous counts of murder, attempted murder and other charges. He remains in pre-trial detention, police said on Sunday.

Saudi Arabia had requested the extradition of the suspect, but Germany had not responded, they said. Saudi Arabia's foreign ministry has condemned the attack. The suspect appeared in a number of media interviews in 2019, reporting on his activist work helping Saudi Arabians who had turned their back on Islam to flee to Europe. He is a fierce critic of Islam in these interviews.
