On December 20, 2024, six people were killed at the Christmas market in central Magdeburg — five women and a nine-year-old boy — and more than 300 were injured, some seriously, when a man drove a vehicle into the crowd.
A year on, the perpetrator's precise motives remain unclear, while residents continue to carry the shock and grief.
