A total of at least 36 people were injured in a deliberate attack when a 24-year-old Afghan refugee drove into a union march in central Munich, with the police confirming the driver's confession.

In Munich, a car driven by a 24-year-old Afghan asylum seeker collided with a crowd, injuring at least 28 people. The driver was detained at the scene, and although Bavarian state premier Markus Söder suggested the act appeared deliberate, Bavaria's interior minister stated there was no evidence linking it to a nearby international conference, which had heightened security concerns in the city. The incident occurred on the eve of the conference, drawing reactions of shock and sympathy from international figures, including NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. Police confirmed the suspect no longer posed a threat.
