The attack on Christians and Jews continues to expand during the holy holiday season.
The BBC reports that five men have been arrested in Germany and are suspected of plotting to drive a vehicle into people at a Christmas market, with authorities citing an “Islamist motive” behind the plot.
Police note that the group was already in the midst of operational planning with a goal of maximum carnage.
Bavaria’s state interior minister, Joachim Herrmann, told Bild the “excellent cooperation between our security services” helped to prevent “a potentially Islamist-motivated attack”.
