Germany,Christmas Market,Attack

An investigation into the Germany Christmas market attack has revealed that security gaps, including car-sized spaces between barriers, were known about weeks prior to the incident. A leaked email from a city council representative to local police highlighted these issues, pointing out the frequent absence of police vehicles that were supposed to block emergency vehicle access routes. Despite a pre-event security inspection, these deficiencies were not identified, ultimately allowing the alleged attacker to drive into and out of the market unimpeded, resulting in five deaths and over 200 injuries.

Investigation into how the Germany Christmas market attack was allowed to happen descends into bickering and finger-pointing, as newspaper reveals the car-sized gaps in security were known about weeks in advance.

Referring to the security plan having emergency vehicle accesses to the centre of the market to allow access for police, ambulance, and fire engines in case of an incident but those routes having to be closed off by a parked police vehicle otherwise, the council employee states those police vehicles are frequently absent.

The email is said to have received no response. It is further stated the market’s security concept was inspected prior to the event opening, but that inspection failed to notice deficiencies, including car-sized gaps between thestated: “when the market opened, there were wide gaps between the concrete barriers that were supposed to protect the entrances and escape routes.”

As previously reported, the police being involved in blocking those entrances was nevertheless part of the plan police had agreed to and their own security documents referred to “mobile police barriers” being in place.
