Four women and a 9-year-old boy were killed and 200 people were injured when a Saudi doctor drove into a Christmas market teeming with holiday shoppers in the German city of Magdeburg

A couple embrace each other in front of flowers and candles laid down at the Johannis church close to the Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, on Dec. 22. – an attack that has left Germans mourning the victims and with a shaken sense of security.At first, Thi Linh Chi Nguyen thought the loud bangs were fireworks. The 34-year-old manicurist from Vietnam, whose salon is near the Christmas market, was on the phone during a break when she heard the noise just after 7 p.m. on Friday.

Several German media outlets identified the suspect as Taleb A., withholding his last name in line with privacy laws, and reported that he was a specialist in psychiatry and psychotherapy. He has lived in Germany since 2006, practising medicine in Bernburg, about 40 kilometres south of Magdeburg. There are unanswered questions about what the authorities knew about the suspect. The head of the Federal Criminal Police Office, Holger Münch, said the agency – Germany’s equivalent of the FBI – received a warning from Saudi Arabia in November 2023, but that the information proved to be very unspecific.
