Authorities in Magdeburg are investigating the motives behind a deadly attack at a Christmas market, where a 50-year-old man drove a BMW into pedestrians, killing one adult and a child, and injuring over sixty others. Identified as Taleb Al Abdulmohsen, an ex-asylum seeker from Saudi Arabia, he had previously expressed anti-Islamic views and opposed immigration. Police have indicated that there are no known accomplices, and investigations are ongoing into his background and motivations.
