Medics treat injured in front of German Christmas market stalls
Several people injured by in a suspected car-ramming attack at a Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany are being treated by paramedics in front of the market stalls.
A dpa reporter on the scene said there are injured people lying on the ground and being cared for by first responders. Tents have also been set up where the injured can receive treatment.
The Christmas market was closed after the suspected attack, and tram services in the central German city were also suspended. Emergency vehicles have flooded the market area, located near the city hall.
Almost exactly eight years ago to the day, on December 19, 2016, an Islamist terrorist used a hijacked truck to crash into a Christmas market in central Berlin.
Twelve people were killed, with a 13th victim dying in 2021 as a result of their injuries. More than 70 people were hurt. The attacker fled to Italy, where he was shot dead by police.
