The suspect in the Magdeburg terror attack is understood to be a migrant from Saudi Arabia by the name of Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen.
According to the German state broadcaster DW, at least two people have been confirmed dead, and up to 60 more are reported injured after a car rammed into a Christmas market in the city of Magdeburg.
While details about the killer’s identity are still being investigated, Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen was reportedly granted asylum in Germany in 2016 after fleeing from his native Saudi Arabia because he longer believed in Islam.
In an interview with the BBC back in 2019, Taleb explained how he had set up a website to help people flee Gulf states such as Saudi Arabia and move to Germany.
“Hi, my name’s Taleb,” he said in the video currently circulating across social media. “I’m from Saudi Arabia. I’m an activist. I created a website to help people seeking asylum, especially from Saudi Arabia and the Gulf region.”
