A stabbing incident at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin involved a 29-year-old Syrian refugee, who intended to kill Jews according to prosecutors. The victim, a 30-year-old Spanish tourist, was seriously injured but is no longer in danger after emergency surgery. The suspect, who came to Germany as an unaccompanied minor and applied for asylum, was arrested shortly after the attack. The event occurred amid heightened migration tensions and just before Germany's parliamentary elections, suggesting a potential link to broader societal issues.
