Asylum seekers have been involved in a series of deadly attacks in Germany, and police said that the latest attack today in Munich was by someone with an “extremist background.” Today’s attack was carried out by a failed asylum-seeker using a Mini Cooper. It reportedly resulted in a couple in critical condition, and at least a total of 28 people injured. Presumably, the attack would have been even more deadly with another vehicle. The car was driven into a crowd of 1,000 union members who were demonstrating.

The attack occurred ten days before federal elections in Germany.

Here are some other recent attacks over the last year.

— “Bavaria was hit by an attack only three weeks ago, when a toddler and a man aged 41 were killed in a stabbing at a park in the town of Aschaffenburg. It soon emerged that the suspected attacker was an Afghan national with suspected jihadist sympathies, and Olaf Scholz had called on authorities at the time to explain why he was still in Germany.” Maia Davies, “At least 28 injured after car drives into crowd in Munich,” BBC News, February 13, 2025.

— “an Afghan man with suspected Islamist sympathies went on trial at a high-security prison in Stuttgart over a knife attack that killed a policeman and wounded five other people at an anti-Islam rally in Mannheim in May last year.” Maia Davies, “At least 28 injured after car drives into crowd in Munich,” BBC News, February 13, 2025.

— “Dozens of people, including eight children, have been injured after a machete-wielding man allegedly set fire to homes and rammed a van into shops in a terrifying rampage in Germany. A Syrian man was arrested after a fire broke out in two apartment blocks in the western German city of Essen, over 500km from Berlin” Brielle Burns and AFP, “30 people, including children, injured after machete-wielding man allegedly sets fire to homes in Germany,” News.Com.AU, September 30, 2024. Three people ended up being murdered in this attack.
