Afghan asylum seeker stabs child to death in Germany | 22 Jan 2025 | A two-year-old child and an adult were killed and three others injured when a play-school group was targeted in a knife attack in a town in the German state of Bavaria on Wednesday. The incident was condemned by Chancellor Olaf Scholz as an "unbelievable act of terror." The stabbing occurred in a public park in the town of Aschaffenburg, with the suspect, identified as a 28-year-old Afghan national and a failed asylum seeker, targeting a group of toddlers from a daycare center. The attack left a child of "Moroccan origin" and a 41-year-old passerby both dead, Bavaria's regional interior minister Joachim Herrmann told reporters.
