Four women and a boy aged nine were killed in the incident on Friday night in Magdeburg, Germany.

Four women and a nine-year-old boy were killed and 200 people were injured when a Saudi doctor allegedly drove into a Christmas market packed with people in the German city of Magdeburg on Friday night.

A sea of flowers and candles have been left at a makeshift memorial in front of Johannis church close to the Christmas market Police have confirmed those killed were four women, aged 45, 52, 67 and 75, and a boy aged nine. They report he was a specialist in psychiatry and psychotherapy and had lived in Germany since 2006, practising medicine in Bernburg, about 25 miles south of Magdeburg.The suspect’s account on social media site X describes him as a former Muslim. It is filled with tweets and retweets focusing on anti-Islam themes and criticism of the religion, while sharing congratulatory notes to Muslims who left the faith.

There are unanswered questions about what the authorities knew about the suspect. The head of the Federal Criminal Police Office, Holger Munch, said the agency received a warning from Saudi Arabia in November 2023, but that the information proved to be very unspecific. Germany has suffered several extremist attacks in recent years, including a knife attack that killed three people and injured eight at a festival in the western city of Solingen in August.
