Seven Indians were injured in the deadly car-ramming attack in the eastern German city of Magdeburg and the Indian Embassy in Berlin was providing them all possible assistance, PTI reported quoting sources on Saturday night.
A 50-year-old man drove his car into the crowd at the Christmas market on Friday evening, leaving at least five people, including a nine-year-old, dead and nearly 200 injured, German authorities said.
The Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement on Saturday, “We condemn the horrific and senseless attack.” “Several precious lives have been lost and many have been injured. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims,” it added.
