German reports claim that the driver was a man from Saudi Arabia and is approximately 50 years old.
At least 11 people were killed and 60-80 wounded after a car rammed into a Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany on Friday night, Bild reported.

The driver has since been arrested, according to multiple German media reports. Police said the driver drove "at least 400 meters across the Christmas market" through the crowds.


German newspaper Welt published that the driver was a doctor from Saudi Arabia and is approximately 50 years old. The site also claimed the driver had a number of suitcases with him, and police were searching to see if any contained explosive materials. They also searched the area for explosives.

Emergency services have set up tents to care for the wounded, while 10-20 have reportedly arrived at Magdeburg University Hospital for emergency treatment.

The spokesperson for Magdeburg, located some 150 kilometers (93 miles) south-west of Berlin, said the incident appeared to be a deliberate attack.
Matthias Schuppe, a government spokesman in the province of Saxony-Anholt, said it was an “attack” in comments to local media.
A spokesperson for local police said: “We do not yet know exactly what happened.”

^{Eyewitnesses told German media the car drove directly into the crowds. The vehicle was described as a black BMW.}

An unknown number of people were wounded, although Bild reported the figure was over 60. Hospitals as far as 80 km away are preparing to receive those wounded in the attack, according to Bild.

Despite Bild's estimates, the city spokesman Michael Reif told MDR it was still too early to give exact figures. "I estimate there are at least 20 ambulances here, a lot of firefighters, and I can see the police helicopter circling in the sky," an MDR reporter said during a live broadcast, adding that there were a lot of armed police on site.

Head of Saxony-Anhalt state government Reiner Haseloff reported that one of those killed was a small child.

"This is a terrible event, especially now in the days before Christmas," Haseloff told MDR, adding that he was on his way to Magdeburg.

Christmas markets have been eyed as potential target sites by terrorists in Germany for some time. Only two weeks ago, German authorities arrested an Iraqi national suspected of targeting a Christmas market.

Last year, Christmas markets in Germany and Austria were put on high alert for fears of a potential attack.

In 2016, a truck rammed into a Christmas market in Berlin killing 12 people and wounding 48.

US billionaire Elon Musk, set to join President-elect Donald Trump's administration as an outside adviser, called on German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to resign after the incident.

"Scholz should resign immediately," Musk posted on X, adding: "Incompetent fool."

The attacker was a Muslim. Now, we've been warning about Islamic terrorism for years, but no one's listening, Bibi warned Europe. Now, when you try to have a chat about it, some people try to guilt trip you, calling you Islamophobic and whatnot, instead of tackling the real issue which is Islamic terrorism and their thirst to murder people.

These Islamic extremists are everywhere in Europe, they've been imported and they wouldn't think twice about killing an innocent person. And get this, the bloke who carried out this attack was a doctor, for crying out loud!

Islamic terrorism is a big issue, and we need to address it. People shouldn't be too scared to speak up just 'cause they don't wanna be called racists or Islamophobic. Now, your average Muslim doesn't exactly condemn these terrorist acts, do they? And those woke liberals think an Islamic extremist is just gonna integrate? Please!

This is the true face of Islamic terrorism, and Israel's dealing with it every day. These extremists just wanna dominate, and people need to resist, resist, resist! Instead of going on about some genocide that's not even happening, people should be protesting against Islamic terrorism and rooting it out of every sane community.

The attacker is an atheist, even he supports Zionism, go through his account, you lying scumbag.


Any senile and reasonable person will call you islamophic when all you do is spread lies against Islam. A Muslim will commit a crime yet you'll blame the religion, even though the crime is forbidden in Islam, are you sane?.

What did you say about the Jew that was caught on camera sodomizing a Palestinian prisoner, that even went on to become an national hero in Isreal? Or the Jews that have their own sharia equivalent courts in Europe,
Or should we talk about how the Jews spit on Christians, didn't they say Jesus is in hell boiling in hot excrement?
you see your faux outrage.



At some point, He'll admit there are extremist in Islam , at another point He'll condemn the whole religion.
I challenge you: Bring me a crime committed by a Muslim that is allowed in Islam, if you are sincere.

Funny thing is this propaganda machine is from South East.

How's this guy still allowed to make posts, his posts are just full of Jewish propaganda and blatant anti Muslim disinformation.


Which Muslims do not condemn terroristic acts, how many of Israelis terroristic acts have you condemned?
Where is the justification for ramming a vehicle into a crowd in Islam.


Deranged vile individual, what does the Talmund say about goys?

Instead of you to face pressing issues in your region, where UGM are murdering and kidnapping people all around, keep running propaganda for the Jews who won't even grant you asylum if you strap yourself on a missile to Palestine.

Should we talk about how Ethiopian Jews were sterilized, or the racism in Israel against blacks, bold of you to think you have a chance.

guy there is something wrong with Islam and the obsessive thirst for blood of the innocent. Every reasonable islamic follower should be worried about the fact Islam is the face of terrorism in the world today? There is no point in changing goal post and talking about south east. The religion of islam does something to its followers and make them hate other people

pillager:
May Allah humiliate you if you don't desist from spreading propaganda against Muslims.

How is the killer with this account a Muslim?

Botragelad:
This person must think he's chatting with one his type!😂

Nice try though, but you can't change the fact on ground. Keep clinging to whatever lie you can find from propaganda pages on the x app.

For the sane people that are still on nairaland, here's an account detailing the perpetrator's profile.

https://x.com/SuppressedNws/status/1870251681461489835?t=WxOSenF3mnnDqlbOaDGbEw&s=19

TLDR; he's an atheist from saudi, who has been living in Germany since 2006, supports Israel, and even supports greater Isreal which includes annexing Palestine, parts of Lebanon, Syria, and other parts in the Middle East.

Plot twist: He loves Israel; no wonder he rammed his car into a crowd, learning from his Jewish master's tactics in Palestine.

Going by Botragelad logic, it won't be far fetched to say Israel committed this crime, sikee

Botragelad:
Again, keep trying so hard to convince no one with your deception. You are picking lies from pages that are affiliated with Hamas and heavily anti west/anti Israel!

Who's going to take you serious. The only person you are speaking to right now is yourself. Try again! 😂

pillager:
Is this your defense against my refutations?
You can do better than this, don't disappoint me.

Oh they are propaganda accounts?

Here is one of your islamophic friends confirming the account and the perpetrator

Deny this Salwan Momika too.

Fvking dumb ass cretin

pillager:
We have reached a point where this lying machine is denying his fellow islamophobe.

Salwan Momika is more like Botragelad but a better propaganda machine than our nairaland lying machine, he has called for deportations of Muslims also burned the Quran publicly, shame to see Botragelad denying his fellow comrade when his posts did not corroborate the propaganda he tried to push on this thread. Shame
