of nature's grace, adaptive and living. see to europe of 3 golf. jenny reset on w business data. vineyards alive from berlin. the german chancellor visits the theme of friday nights christmas market. that's ok. well that's sholtes calls that deadly roaming in multiple get floats. terrible. catastrophe. 5 people that confirmed that and score was injured after a comp plowed into crowds suspect that taca is in the cost of the i. d, michael junior. and you are welcome to the program that toll from an attack on

a christmas markets in germany has risen to 5 that more than 200 others injured. 40 of those critically dam on towns level f shows is in the eastern german seats. you have mocked above wherever you have talked to place on friday evening. authorities of our rest of the suspects. we do have a cox route, crowd support several 100 meters. he's at 50 o dropped off from saudi arabia removed to germany in 2006, expressed on the slums used online in germany's interior minister, fast as considerate as being. as lemma phobic. now speaking, in fact, of the child's level of shelves condemned to the attack as a terrible act and called on germany to stand together against 8 me a speech dish. it's important to me that when such a terrible thing happens for fun from such a terrible attack for the men which injures and kills so many people, the tests of things almost on the anniversary of the attack on the pride side,

slats in berlin. that's to be that we stay together as a country to the best fit so that we come together and that we talk to each other so that he doesn't guide us on the wisdom, but that we are a community. yeah. moving toward a common future and you can mines them into conflict given that we mean us to do is raphael of a song. these ask you to express outage i minus a tooth for international on to secrete jeff s, thanks very much for a file for making it time we just had from the gentleman's house. that was, i felt highlighting the severity of the situation. i mean, we're talking about 5 that more than 200140 critically in jet. but i want to pick your thoughts on what you make of this attack. well, it doesn't make a lot of sense to be honest to be clear. i mean, we can all kind of make conjectures, but the most plausible theory or assumption is that the sky was clearly mentally disturbed how much it was like academical illness. i don't know, but at least in terms of the political views, the spouse tags seems

a very include incoherent, harsh portion of ideas. so, so, yes, originally i also thought this was going to be something different because of course, the general sort of terrorism remains fall, not as high as it has been, but relevant. and we've seen this kind of attacks before, but there were an embedded in a different kind of ideological setting. and this one is, seems to be a crazy loaner who funds is had apparently to do next. some harm, right. seems to be uh, just to be clear investigation is still ongoing, so we'll probably get that the final verdict lead to about, especially after past incidence christmas markets like the one in the book. the normally tends to have security. right. but what went wrong this time? well, that's obviously also something still to be determined. i mean, i haven't been to the locality itself. um, so i was also surprised that because all the christmas markets and those know usually blocked off with various barriers and concrete blocks and how this guy

could drive it at such high speed as well into this crowd. well, sometimes they are avenues for the sort of rescue services, but obviously that shouldn't be accessible to a normal car. mean that's one thing that still hasn't been sort of discussed publicly understand, but it will be certain to come in the next 2 days. and the other thing is of course, couldn't have we stopped this person in yvonne's and that happened various on line traces of this person who gave rise for concern allegedly several people tried to report him to the police already and nothing happened. and then again, of course, this is also something still to be debated. i think there was fair reasons to say maybe the police of the star test would have acted more decisively earlier. on the other hand, also i understand there is such a huge deluge of talk, 6 stuff on social media. people say also things that we it's very, very hard for the authorities to know what's real and what's, what's not bad. right?

i think as the last piece of the puzzle, i mean, all is not corroborated so far. so i have to be careful here. but some were saying that in the past this guy was actually our criminal in or thoughtful criminal charges and saudi arabia and, and that's good as being perhaps also taken most seriously. so really we'll see hopefully in the next few days, um is certainly something could have been done earlier, but at the same time we know we kind of watch everybody all the time. right, right. rather unfortunate as we've already established, this is not the fast such attack, but what makes it different from the previous ones, if, if they're saying well, as i said, the kind of ideology seems to be really weird. i mean, he, on the one hand claims to have been an advocate for refugees, but as long and then he blames the german police for somehow eli needing refugees or himself. and so it doesn't quite seem to add up. i mean, if you want to take a bigger position on this, and i really, i'm cautious because everybody's playing politics with us at the time. and this is

unfortunately what happens often. but we, we should try to put a break on it. but it's kind of that obviously this guy was also among other things, pulled into right wing conspiracy stuff. and um, yeah, i mean, the talks, it talks like nature of social media. once again at least was an aggravating factor . maybe not the causal factor about an arguing factor, and we, we need to do more there and, and i mean, is a wrong is that, you know, you must claim for shows to reside and was, and actually this guy was a family will mosque. so it's, it's really rather why the, inc, wait a moment. yeah. so many things all scott that over the place um, anything due to note about the profile of the taca saudi arabia. well, i mean, it's extremely unusual because mostly if these things happen, they are younger often. and this guy has to be not nearly well 18 years in germany is a long time. and i don't know how good he was as a doctor, but he seemed to have been reasonably clever. otherwise he probably would have helped this job. and um,

and he was this activist and she apparently also had some successes of this activist. i mean, they're video clips going around giving interviews to various to these stations. and so i don't know exactly what, what switched in his brain in the last 2 years, which kind of made him made this, this kind of rather strange term. right. kaylee still a lot to be figured out to rough file, but so it's a good way to explain that to him and is it useful international and scapes f, as many thanks for you, insight, fucking. it's not a motive ball friday night the tax is still unclear. as i'm sure you've been listening to the suspect, who was arrested at the scene is a 50 year old doctor from saudi arabia who moved to germany in 2000. and 6, you had expressed a strong guns ease of use on line and praised the far right of the political party . police force the driver of the badly damaged bmw, out of his cot and onto the ground. the 4 officers rushed to detain him. the

rest came moments after the costs smashed through a crowd of people at a christmas market in the east. and jim and the city of monk debunk the vehicle drive at least $400.00 maces according to police, killing and injuring people in its path. a young child is among the deed more than 100 emergency responders rushed to the same layout extremist drive the truck into a building christmas market, killing 13 people. christmas markets are a huge part of german culture, but several events have now been cooled off that the weekend as a safety precaution and out of respect for the victims and mount the book. did of use jews. gisela, is that a christmas market in a mock? the books you describe the scene for us, or is it supposed to say, as you can see behind me, the esther, quite a few people standing around to. so it just attended the press conference, see if,

but all the people here press. so it's actually the 1st time that we are allowed onto the grounds where the attack happens that behind agency, the christmas market. this has been closed off for public and it's because of for public. so it's a 1st time actually that at least people from the press can and to the grounds. it's gonna be until further notice will so close the full public because investigation. so since the ongoing, we had run has enough that we had chance less boats of speaking, we do have not only to more service tonight, but they're also the memoria sites in the city that has opened up nice, where people can go and moon. and there's also a psychological service in place at the local hospital where people can go to, to find the support and help needed. right. you've been, i'll go to person on the ground since this horrible attack you've been speaking to

people. what i'd be telling you is we don't want to do this isn't by not smartphone people here in the city us to absolutely under talk just briefly before we spoke. and before i entered these groans, i actually was, i met the family on the street and the father just started crying and said he cannot believe what happened. and so there's definitely shows that there is lots of grief and also lots of inc, i on here. um, so we also had people in this morning, a shouting and the streets and kind of so the nerves are really on the ground to to name. and so they were showed saying that they cannot believe that this happened, that i cannot believe that this happened in the city of macs, the book that they are blaming. well, so it's always use that i haven't done enough that they really cannot understand what is actually happening. so there is a lot of this back in the city and a lot of morning, understandably so did you use that juice key to that?

and a mock the book. many thanks. bye us. now the united states is dropping. it's $10000000.00 reward for the rest of syria's new to fact donita. i'm at al serra, the announcements came out to us officials. this is a damascus to hold talks with a serial administration. and what's the fast of the monthly commission from the united states, the syria? so it's the beginning of the civil senior for them. i've held talks with i'm at all sort of the revel leader who's h d s. helped about throw dictates up a shot of us. that's we g h t is one. is that ties to the tire group? i'll tell you to about parted ways with them. yes, a go w, corresponding to abraham joined us from damascus and told us what syrians outside and had about the hopes for democracy. it's been really an extraordinary week for us here, covering syria after the abrupt fall of course started i said people have been

telling us a lot of things, but i would say if there's one thing that really will say in my mind as i, the syria today, is that when we're out here, you know, doing our work, people who come to us and they'll ask us, are you from the media or your journalist? and when we say yes, they'll say, i want to speak to you. i want to have something to say. and this is really, anywhere we go, you have people coming up to us and just, you know, very eagerly wanting to speak to the media and saying, i have something to say. and i think that's really important to remember as we move forward is that of course, there are a lot of, you know, international actors out there that have an interest in what's going on in syria. and the big fear among people here is that their voices and what they want for their country is going to somehow be, be modeled. and you know, speaking to active is especially women's rights activists. they're already saying, you know, there's a lot of talk about us and what we want is for our own voices to be amplified. the syrian people have been living under the, you know, the side dynastee for, for decade in just might be a true,

unique opportunity for them to finally be able to express what they want for their country. after so many years of their agency being dropped from them. and i think that's, that's really, really important to remember moving forward for us as journalists, but also for world leaders that it is the voice of the syrian people that need to be amplified and listen to this. and that was, do you have any correspondence a f t brian? let's remind you of the top started with following at this hour germantown does not hold off shelves, has been set the sites on friday evenings, christmas markets attack, a mock calling it that quote, terrible catastrophe. 5 people that are fans dead and hundreds of injured cats or a ca plowed into the crowd of markets. the suspected attack that dropped off from saudi arabia positive even jeremy, since 2006 is the customer as well. and our website content on off social media at g, w, up next, know close bottle against the big take money in select on the bottom. that is in

the film after the break. i, i'm eddie mike, thanks for watching and speak with us for more use of the talk will be on the not just another day. so much is happening all at once. we take time to understand this is the day an in depth look, it's karen who use events analyzed by experts and critical thinking is this is with the weekdays on dw, the .
